Configuring database high availability using
Microsoft SQL Server
AlwaysOn

Before you install
BlackBerry UEM
, decide if you want to configure high availability for the
BlackBerry UEM
database. Database high availability allows you to retain database service and data integrity if issues occur with the
BlackBerry UEM
database.
You can use one of the following
Microsoft SQL Server
features for database high availability:
  • AlwaysOn Failover Cluster Instances (FCI) for
    Microsoft SQL Server
    2014 or 2016 (Standard Edition)
  • AlwaysOn Availability Groups for
    Microsoft SQL Server
    2014 or 2016 (Enterprise Edition)
  • Database mirroring for
    Microsoft SQL Server
    2014
If you want to use an AlwaysOn feature, you must complete configuration steps before you install
BlackBerry UEM
. This section gives you instructions for configuring database high availability using AlwaysOn.
You can configure database mirroring any time after you install
BlackBerry UEM
.
For instructions, see the Configuration content.
Microsoft
recommends using AlwaysOn because database mirroring will be deprecated in a future version of
Microsoft SQL Server
.
