services, the following prerequisites apply to the
Docs
service:

    BEMS
    must be a domain member and have access to the
    Microsoft Active Directory
    .

Database Requirements

A blank
Microsoft SQL Server
database is required for a new installation of the
BlackBerry Docs
service. It is recommended that you name the database "BEMS_Docs". The installer extends the schema during the installation process.
If you install the
Docs
service on a separate computer, two
Microsoft SQL Server
databases are required. One for the
Docs
service and one for the
BlackBerry Push Notifications
 It is recommended that you name the databases "BEMS_Docs" and "BEMS_Core4".

CMIS Requirements

Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) is an open standard that allows different content management systems to inter-operate over the Internet. The
Docs
service supports content management systems that support CMIS.
Consult your vendor documentation to determine whether your system is supported by CMIS and whether that support comes via AtomPub or Web Services. If both are supported, Atom Pub is recommended. You must have the binding URL for this support.
Only
Microsoft Active Directory
users are supported for CMIS. That is, the content management system must be connected to
Microsoft Active Directory
for user authentication for
Docs
service to support it.
