I know that subject sounds odd. We have one meeting room that is capable of being split into two meeting rooms. Meeting room A is the one large room then Meeting Room B & C are the two smaller rooms when split. I am trying to figure out if its possible to set up the "resource" so that when you book Meeting Room A that it blocks off Meeting Room B and Meeting Room C. And to make this a little more complicated, if someone just needs to use Meeting Room B then its not possible to book Meeting Room A because one half of that room is being used. As anyone tried this?
My first thought is that staff just has to learn if they want to block off the larger room they have to block off both rooms at the same time. But our staff seems to struggle with just booking meeting rooms properly as it stands now. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

That would work but we would run into an issue when Meeting room B was already booked. Meeting room B would have to "decline" the request which would then "decline" the overall request from Meeting room A? Is that possible?

Not by default. There might be some third-party tools that allow for resource dependencies, but
I would suggest you simply designate a delegate for the rooms and only allow bookings after approval from him/her. Or, loose Room A, leave only B and C. However wants Room A, should book both B and C at the same time.

@Tom Robey Did you ever solve this. I have the exact same question
