Appendix A: Migrating your
Good Share
database to
BEMS
-Docs

Good Share

deployment can migrate/repurpose its database for the

BEMS

-Docs service to support existing user transition from the

BlackBerry Share

client to

BlackBerry Work

. First, however,

BEMS

and the Docs Configuration Console must be installed in in the environment.

Client App Support Considerations

The following limitations must be considered in determining whether or not a migration is advisable:

BlackBerry Share

clients communicate with the

BlackBerry Share

server only; they are not supported by the

BEMS

-Docs service

BlackBerry Work

Docs communicates with the

BEMS

-Docs service only; it is not supported by the

Good Share

server.

Given these inherent limitations, it is recommended that you continue to run your deployed

BlackBerry Share

servers in parallel with the

BEMS

-Docs service for a duration sufficient to conveniently transition your users from their

BlackBerry Share

client app to

BlackBerry Work

After upgrading your

Good Share

database to

BEMS

-Docs, discontinue using the old

Good Share

Console and use only the

BEMS

Dashboard Home > Docs pages for administration going forward.

Otherwise, you will want to consider two basic migration scenarios:

Migrating with continued

BlackBerry Share

client support

Migrating to

BlackBerry Work

only (no

BlackBerry Share

client support)
