Assign an activation password to a user account
You can use the BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 User Administration Tool to assign an activation password to a user account, and to configure how long the activation password is available.
- To open the command window for the BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 User Administration Tool, on the computer that hosts the tool, on the taskbar, click Start > All Programs > BlackBerry Resource Kit for BlackBerry Device Service > BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 User Administration Tool.
- Type besuseradminclient <credentials> -change -u <user_name> .
-
Perform one of the following actions:
- To generate a random activation password and email it to the user, type -wrandom.
- To specify the activation password, type -w <password>. To specify the number of hours before the activation password expires, type -wt <expiry_time>. The default expiry time is 48 hours. If you use this option, contact the user and give them the activation password.
Example: Assigning an activation password to a user account that expires in 24 hours
besuseradminclient -username admin -password password -change -u jpalmer@test.rim.net -w Activate1234 -wt 24
besuseradminclient -username admin -password password -change -u jpalmer@test.rim.net -wrandom
