BlackBerry IT Policy Import and Export Tool

The BlackBerry IT Policy Import and Export Tool is a command-line tool that you can use to export IT policy information from a BlackBerry Configuration Database to a backup file. You can use the backup file to import the information to a different BlackBerry Configuration Database to make the IT policies available to a different BlackBerry Domain.

The source and destination BlackBerry Configuration Database must be associated with the same type of product. For example, you cannot export IT policy information from the BlackBerry Configuration Database of a BlackBerry Enterprise Server and import the IT policy information to the BlackBerry Configuration Database of a BlackBerry Device Service; each product supports a different set of IT policy rules.

The tool does not support importing IT policy information to a version of the BlackBerry Device Service, BlackBerry Enterprise Server, or BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express that is earlier than the version you exported the IT policy information from.

The tool does not support exporting and importing IT policy information between different platforms of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server. For example, you cannot export IT policy information from the BlackBerry Enterprise Server for Microsoft Exchange and import the IT policy information to the BlackBerry Enterprise Server for IBM Lotus Domino.

This document assumes that you are using the tools in the BlackBerry Resource Kit for the BlackBerry Device Service to manage, maintain, and troubleshoot issues with a BlackBerry Device Service. If you want to use the tools in the BlackBerry Resource Kit for the BlackBerry Device Service with the BlackBerry Enterprise Server or BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express, visit www.blackberry.com/go/serverdocs to see the documentation for the appropriate version of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server Resource Kit.
