Upgrade the BlackBerry MVS version 4.6 software

If your organization has previously configured the Cisco® Unified Communications Manager for COP file support, perform this task to upgrade the BlackBerry® Mobile Voice System to BlackBerry MVS Server bundle 17.

  1. On the computer where you want to upgrade the BlackBerry MVS software, log in using the Windows® domain account that was used to install the BlackBerry MVS software.
  2. In the folder where the BlackBerry MVS installation files are located, double-click the setup.exe file.
  3. In the License Agreement window, accept the terms in the license agreement. Click Next.
  4. In the Setup Type window, select an installation type. Perform one of the following actions:
    • To install both the BlackBerry MVS Console and the BlackBerry MVS Session Manager, select the BlackBerry MVS Console and the BlackBerry MVS Session Manager options.
    • To install only the BlackBerry MVS Console, select the BlackBerry MVS Console option. You should install one instance of the BlackBerry MVS Console per BlackBerry Configuration Database.
    • To install only the BlackBerry MVS Session Manager, select the BlackBerry MVS Session Manager option.

In the SQL server name, Database Name, and Port number fields, type the information about your organization's BlackBerry Configuration Database. Review the Data directory and Backup directory locations. If necessary, click Browse. Navigate to a different location.
