Planning to upgrade the BlackBerry Domain in phases when your organization's infrastructure is in one location
If you previously installed the
BlackBerry® Enterprise Server instances,
BlackBerry Configuration Database, and
messaging servers on a single LAN, and one or more of the following conditions applies to your
organization environment, you can use the phased upgrade process:
- You want to upgrade the
existing BlackBerry Configuration Database and BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances.
-
You are not a database administrator and you do not have permissions to upgrade the
BlackBerry Configuration Database using the BlackBerry Enterprise Server setup application.
- You installed the BlackBerry Enterprise Server components on separate computers.
-
Your analysis indicates
that you must install the BlackBerry Administration Service on a
computer that is separate from the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
