Removing the
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
software

You can use the uninstall application to remove the
BlackBerry UEM
connectivity software from a server. The uninstall application can also remove the log files for the existing installation.
The uninstall application removes the software from the local server, but it does not do the following:
  • Remove the
    BlackBerry Connectivity Node
    instance from the
    BlackBerry UEM
    database
  • Deregister the components from the
    BlackBerry Dynamics NOC
  • Remove the
    BlackBerry Proxy
    instance from the
    BEMS
    BlackBerry Dynamics
    configuration
    If your environment is running an on-premises
    BEMS
    instance, verify that the
    BlackBerry UEM
    that is being decommissioned is not listed in the
    UEM
    instance
    BEMS
    Dashboard >
    BlackBerry Dynamics
    configuration screen. If the
    BlackBerry UEM
    is listed and it is used by
    BEMS
    as the primary
    BlackBerry Proxy
    server, you must specify another
    BlackBerry Proxy
    server or users cannot access the
    BEMS-Docs
    repositories and will eventually stop receiving new email notifications. To verify if the
    UEM
    instance is listed, see Configure the BlackBerry Dynamics server in BEMS in the Configuring
    BEMS-Core
    content.
Therefore, before you reinstall the
BlackBerry UEM
connectivity software, you must remove the
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
instance from the management console. When you remove a
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
instance from the management console, the
BlackBerry Proxy
instance is deregistered from the
BlackBerry Dynamics NOC
. This is a necessary step for decommissioning.
If you upgraded a
Good Proxy
server to a
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
instance, the
BlackBerry Proxy
service will be registered with the
BlackBerry Dynamics NOC
. Before you can properly remove the
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
, you must activate it, then remove it. See Activate a BlackBerry Connectivity Node instance.
