Upgrade Planning Guide Overview: BlackBerry Enterprise Server
Overview: BlackBerry
Enterprise Server
1
The BlackBerry Enterprise Server is designed to be a secure, centralized link between an organization's wireless network, communications software, applications, and BlackBerry smartphones. The BlackBerry Enterprise Server integrates with your organization's existing infrastructure to provide smartphone users with mobile access to your organization's resources.
You can manage the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, smartphones, and user accounts using the BlackBerry Administration
Service. You can access the BlackBerry Administration Service web application from any computer that can access the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Administration Service.
You can optionally install BlackBerry Management Studio in your organization's environment to provide a simplified administrative console for your organization's helpdesk administrators and an integrated view of the BlackBerry Enterprise
Server and other MDM domains. For more information, visit http://www.blackberry.com/go/serverdocs to see the
BlackBerry Management Studio Feature and Technical Overview.

Upgrading a BlackBerry
Enterprise Server environment
2
The latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version contains new features and components (for example, high availability and a new administrative client named the BlackBerry Administration Service) that impact how you can upgrade an existing
BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment. To upgrade your organization's environment to the latest BlackBerry Enterprise
Server verson, you must determine how you can implement the new components and features in the current BlackBerry
Enterprise Server environment, what changes to the hardware and BlackBerry Enterprise Server architecture are required, and which upgrade process is most appropriate for your organization's environment.
You can consider the following information to help you determine which upgrade process you can use in your organization's environment:
• whether you want to upgrade the BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment without modifying the hardware or
BlackBerry Enterprise Server architecture
• whether the current BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment supports the new BlackBerry Enterprise Server components and features
• which changes you might want to implement in the BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment during the upgrade process
For system requirements or supported upgrade versions, see the BlackBerry Enterprise Server Upgrade Guide.
Supported BlackBerry Enterprise Server versions that you can upgrade
You can upgrade the following BlackBerry Enterprise Server versions to the latest version:
• BlackBerry Enterprise Server 5.0 SP1
• BlackBerry Enterprise Server 5.0 SP4
If your organization has a BlackBerry Enterprise Server version that is not listed, you must first upgrade to one of the
BlackBerry Enterprise Server versions in the list above before you can upgrade to the latest version.

Deployment implications of upgrading a
BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment
How you deploy a BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment determines how you can configure the functionality that is available for each BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance and BlackBerry device user. The BlackBerry Enterprise Server architecture must include at least one BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance and one BlackBerry Configuration Database.
If you install additional BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances that use the same BlackBerry Configuration Database, you deploy a BlackBerry Domain.
If you deploy more than one BlackBerry Domain in your organization's environment, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances in one BlackBerry Domain cannot communicate with BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances in another
BlackBerry Domain. Each BlackBerry Domain must use its own administrative client.
If mirroring is enabled in your organization's environment, you must run on the primary database to perform an upgrade.
Upgrades are not supported when running in a mirrored failover state.
Note: If you are upgrading from BlackBerry Enterprise Server 4.1.x to BlackBerry Enterprise Server 5.0.x all previously created software configurations will be deleted. Document all software configuration settings prior to the upgrade in order to recreate them once the upgrade is complete. For more information, see the BlackBerry Enterprise Server Administration
Guide.
The following table explains the upgrade implications of each deployment type.
Deployment type standalone BlackBerry Enterprise
Server
BlackBerry Domain
Description
If you deploy a standalone BlackBerry Enterprise Server, only one BlackBerry
Enterprise Server connects to the BlackBerry Configuration Database. If you plan to upgrade a standalone BlackBerry Enterprise Server, you must consider future growth of your organization or consolidations with other organizations.
If you expect future growth of your organization, you should plan whether you want to locate the BlackBerry Configuration Database on a computer that is separate from the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
If you expect disaster recovery or high availability of the BlackBerry Enterprise
Server to become more important, you should consider whether to install the
BlackBerry Configuration Database on a computer that is separate from the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Enterprise Server and whether to acquire additional hardware or virtual machine resources to host a standby BlackBerry
Enterprise Server instance.
If you deploy a BlackBerry Domain, two or more BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances connect to a shared BlackBerry Configuration Database.
Before you upgrade the BlackBerry Domain, consider the following information:
Upgrade Planning Guide
Deployment type
Upgrading a BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment
Description
• upgrade options for the BlackBerry Configuration Database and whether you require new software or hardware
• performance of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances and BlackBerry
Administration Service in relation to their network proximity to the
BlackBerry Configuration Database
• in an environment with more than one BlackBerry Domain, limits for sharing
BlackBerry Enterprise Server services and administrative flexibility
• scope and size of the BlackBerry Domain
• upgrade process that you want to use (for example, a phased approach, or a one-time, in-place upgrade)
Upgrading a BlackBerry Enterprise Server and a BlackBerry Configuration Database that are configured for replication
If you configured previous BlackBerry Enterprise Server versions for disaster recovery as documented in BlackBerry
Enterprise Server Disaster Recovery Guide, you installed a BlackBerry Enterprise Server and a replicated BlackBerry
Enterprise Server. When you upgrade the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances that are configured for disaster recovery, you can upgrade the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances and configure high availability instead. When you configure high availability, you can also configure automatic failover, which permits a standby BlackBerry Enterprise Server to take over from a primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server without intervention from an administrator.
If you configured database replication for the BlackBerry Configuration Database, you can continue to use database replication after the upgrade process completes. However, during the upgrade process, you must turn off database replication. After the upgrade process completes, you must reconfigure the replicated BlackBerry Configuration Database manually.
As an alternative to database replication, you can configure database mirroring after the upgrade process completes. If you configure database mirroring and if you configure the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances to support database mirroring, when the principal BlackBerry Configuration Database stops responding, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server can automatically switch to the mirror BlackBerry Configuration Database without intervention from an administrator.
For more information about high availability, see the BlackBerry Enterprise Server Planning Guide.

Upgrade Planning Guide Upgrading a BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment
Upgrading a BlackBerry Enterprise Server in a segmented network
If you distributed the BlackBerry Enterprise Server components on multiple computers and configured a segmented network using firewalls as documented in Placing the BlackBerry Enterprise Solution in a segmented network, you must verify that the components can communicate with each other. You must open the new ports on the firewalls that the components in the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version require. For example, when you upgrade to BlackBerry
Enterprise Server version 5.0, you must open the database port for the BlackBerry Attachment Service so that it can communicate with the BlackBerry Configuration Database.
In the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version, you must expand the segmented network architecture to include the
BlackBerry Administration Service and BlackBerry Monitoring Service. To improve performance of the BlackBerry
Administration Service, you can consider placing the BlackBerry Administration Service in close network proximity to the
BlackBerry Configuration Database.
Upgrading the BlackBerry Enterprise Server in a Wi-Fi environment
If you upgrade the BlackBerry Enterprise Server in a Wi-Fi environment, the upgrade process maintains the WLAN SRP information and WLAN activation settings that you previously configured. The setup application for the latest BlackBerry
Enterprise Server version does not display the same Wi-Fi dialog boxes as previous setup applications did. Instead, you can view and change the Wi-Fi settings for the BlackBerry Enterprise Server using the BlackBerry Configuration Panel.
8
Managing a mixed-version environment
If your organization installed multiple BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances in a BlackBerry Domain, you can choose to upgrade each BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance over time. If you installed the BlackBerry MDS Integration Service on any BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances in a BlackBerry Domain, you must remove the BlackBerry MDS Integration
Service component from all BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances before you upgrade to the latest BlackBerry Enterprise
Server version.
After you upgrade the BlackBerry Configuration Database, you must manage all BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances using the BlackBerry Administration Service version that is the same as the BlackBerry Configuration Database version.
Upgrade Planning Guide Upgrading a BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment
When you manage BlackBerry Enterprise Server 4.1 SP7 or later using the BlackBerry Administration Service, consider the following information:
• You cannot install previous versions of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
• You can create user accounts only after you install the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version and a BlackBerry
Administration Service. To create user accounts, the BlackBerry Administration Service requires the BlackBerry Mail
Store Service. The setup application installs the BlackBerry Mail Store Service automatically with the latest BlackBerry
Enterprise Server version.
Best practice: Preparing to upgrade the
BlackBerry Enterprise Server
Best practice
Document the BlackBerry Enterprise
Server environment.
Description
Consider documenting the following items:
• topology
• user accounts, administrator accounts, groups, and roles
• IT policies and application control policies
• software configurations and applications
• addresses for proxy servers, content servers, and application servers
• email message filters
• email message classifications, signatures, and disclaimers
• settings for organizer data synchronization
• attachment file formats specific to your organization
• settings for instant messaging
• access restrictions to your organization's applications and web servers
Configure a test environment.
Analyze your organization's environment to determine an upgrade strategy. Each organization's upgrade process might differ depending on expected future growth, existing resources, and features that an organization might want to implement.
Consider building a test environment to test the latest BlackBerry Enterprise
Server version and upgrade process that applies to your organization's environment.
Consider the following questions:
• What was the growth of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment in your organization's environment over the past year, including the number of users and the types of actions that users perform on their BlackBerry devices?

Replacing the BlackBerry Manager with the
BlackBerry Administration Service
In BlackBerry Enterprise Server versions later than version 4.1, the BlackBerry Administration Service replaces the
BlackBerry Manager as the BlackBerry Enterprise Server component that you use to manage the BlackBerry Enterprise
Server and BlackBerry device users.
During the BlackBerry Enterprise Server upgrade process, the setup application removes the BlackBerry Manager. If you installed a standalone BlackBerry Manager, you can remove the BlackBerry Manager after you install the BlackBerry
Administration Service.
After the BlackBerry Enterprise Server upgrade process completes, you must create administrator accounts for the administrators in your organization and provide the administrators with new login information and the BlackBerry
Administration Service web address. If you try to run the BlackBerry Manager, it displays the "DB version greater than maximum currently supported" message and closes.
12
Upgrade implications for the BlackBerry
Configuration Database
When you upgrade the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to the latest version, you must also upgrade the BlackBerry
Configuration Database to the latest version. You can use the setup application to install or upgrade BlackBerry Enterprise
Server components such as the BlackBerry Configuration Database. The installation or upgrade process upgrades the
BlackBerry Configuration Database automatically so that the database and components run the same version. If you do not want to use the setup application to upgrade the BlackBerry Configuration Database, you can run the database upgrade scripts on the database server.
You cannot manage the BlackBerry Enterprise Server until you install the BlackBerry Administration Service version that is the same as the BlackBerry Configuration Database version or upgrade the BlackBerry Administration Service so that it is the same version as the BlackBerry Configuration Database.
Upgrade Planning Guide Upgrading BlackBerry Enterprise Server components
You must move an MSDE database such as a BlackBerry Configuration Database from MSDE to a version of Microsoft SQL
Server that Microsoft fully supports. To upgrade a BlackBerry Configuration Database and move it from MSDE to Microsoft
SQL Server, you must create a copy of the BlackBerry Configuration Database, move the copy to Microsoft SQL Server, and then upgrade the BlackBerry Configuration Database on the Microsoft SQL Server to the latest version.
Upgrade implications for the BlackBerry
Attachment Service
You can run BlackBerry Attachment Service 4.1 SP7 or later with the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version. Consider the following information:
• You can use the BlackBerry Administration Service to view BlackBerry Attachment Service version 4.1 settings for the
BlackBerry Messaging Agent, BlackBerry MDS Connection Service, and BlackBerry Collaboration Service, but you cannot change the settings.
• You can continue to configure BlackBerry Attachment Service version 4.1 using the BlackBerry Configuration Panel.
During the BlackBerry Attachment Service upgrade process, the BlackBerry Attachment Service settings that are stored in the Windows registry move to the BlackBerry Configuration Database.
Before you can upgrade the BlackBerry Attachment Service, you must upgrade the BlackBerry Configuration Database and a BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance. You must also install the BlackBerry Administration Service.
Upgrade implications for the BlackBerry
Collaboration Service
Before you upgrade to the latest version of the BlackBerry Collaboration Service or BlackBerry Enterprise Server, consider the following information:
• You can run the latest BlackBerry Collaboration Service version with BlackBerry Enterprise Server 5.0 or later.
• You can run BlackBerry Collaboration Service 4.1 SP7 or later with the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version.
If you installed the BlackBerry Collaboration Service for use with Windows Messenger, you must upgrade Windows
Messenger to Microsoft Office Live Communications Server 2005 or later. The latest BlackBerry Collaboration Service version does not support Windows Messenger.
Before you can upgrade the BlackBerry Collaboration Service, you must upgrade the BlackBerry Configuration Database and a BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance. You must also install the BlackBerry Administration Service.
13
14
Upgrade Planning Guide Upgrading BlackBerry Enterprise Server components
Upgrade implications for the BlackBerry
MDS Connection Service
You can run BlackBerry MDS Connection Service 4.1 SP7 or later with the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version.
Consider the following information:
• The latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version does not support versions of the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service central push servers that are earlier than version 5.0. You must upgrade all BlackBerry MDS Connection Service central push servers that the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version uses to version 5.0 or later.
• If you assigned the software configuration for a push application to a group, when you upgrade the BlackBerry
Configuration Database to the latest version, the upgrade process does not migrate the group information. If a
BlackBerry MDS Connection Service version 4.1 instance requests a push to a group that no longer exists, the push fails and an error message is written to the log file, indicating that the group does not exist.
• The BlackBerry Administration Service permits you to view the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service version 4.1 settings, but it does not permit you to change the settings.
• The latest BlackBerry MDS Connection Service version might require more memory than previous versions because you can configure it to connect to multiple BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances. The latest version of the BlackBerry
MDS Connection Service central push server caches all user data from all BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances.
Before you can upgrade the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service, you must upgrade a BlackBerry Configuration Database and a BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance. You must also install a BlackBerry Administration Service.
The upgrade process removes the SNMP monitoring of the server-level events associated with the BlackBerry MDS
Connection Service. To monitor the server-level events after the upgrade process completes, you can use the BlackBerry
Monitoring Service.
After you upgrade the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service, you must update your organization's push applications to use the new x-rim-push-gateways header. In earlier versions, when the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service received the
UserAgent:MDSRuntime header from a push application, the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service sent the host:port of the central push server in the http_via header. The latest BlackBerry MDS Connection Service version does not send the http_via header.
Upgrade Planning Guide Upgrading BlackBerry Enterprise Server components
Upgrade implications for a BlackBerry
Enterprise Server connection to a remote
BlackBerry MDS Connection Service or
BlackBerry Collaboration Service
When you upgrade a BlackBerry Enterprise Server, the upgrade process maintains the existing connections to the
BlackBerry MDS Connection Service instances or BlackBerry Collaboration Service instances. If the BlackBerry Enterprise
Server connects to BlackBerry MDS Connection Service instances or BlackBerry Collaboration Service instances that you installed on remote computers, and during the upgrade process you install a BlackBerry MDS Connection Service instance or BlackBerry Collaboration Service instance with the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, the setup application does not connect the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service instance or BlackBerry Collaboration Service instance that you install on the same computer.
You can use the BlackBerry Administration Service to configure the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to connect to the local
BlackBerry MDS Connection Service or BlackBerry Collaboration Service instance after the upgrade process completes.
Upgrade implications for the BlackBerry
Monitoring Service
To monitor the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version, you must install the latest BlackBerry Monitoring Service version.
BlackBerry Monitoring Service 5.0 and later does not support monitoring BlackBerry Enterprise Server 4.1 instances. If your organization's environment includes instances of BlackBerry Enterprise Server 4.1 SP7, you can use BlackBerry
Monitoring Service 4.1 SP7 to monitor BlackBerry Enterprise Server 4.1 instances. You must install the latest BlackBerry
Monitoring Service version on a computer that does not host BlackBerry Monitoring Service 4.1 SP7 and create a new
BlackBerry Monitoring Service database to monitor the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version.
15
16
Upgrade Planning Guide Upgrading BlackBerry Enterprise Server components
Upgrade implications for the BlackBerry
Router
You can run a BlackBerry Router that is version 4.1 SP7 or later with the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version.
You cannot use the BlackBerry Administration Service to manage the BlackBerry Router instances because the BlackBerry
Router instances do not connect to the BlackBerry Configuration Database. You can continue to configure the BlackBerry
Router instances using the BlackBerry Configuration Panel.
Upgrade implications for the BlackBerry
Web Desktop Manager
If BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager version 1.0 or later is installed, you must upgrade the BlackBerry Web Desktop
Manager to the latest version. You cannot use earlier versions of the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager with BlackBerry
Enterprise Server version 5.0 or later.
To upgrade the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager, you must install the BlackBerry Administration Service. The BlackBerry
Administration Service installation process also installs the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager.
When you upgrade the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager, the upgrade process does not maintain the BlackBerry Web
Desktop Manager settings that you configured in the bas-config.properties file or using the basConfig.bat tool. The upgrade process creates a new SSL certificate for the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager. After the upgrade process completes, you can reconfigure the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager using the BlackBerry Administration Service.
Upgrade Planning Guide Upgrading a standalone BlackBerry Enterprise Server
Upgrading a standalone
BlackBerry Enterprise Server
4
If your organization includes fewer than 500 BlackBerry device users and you manage the BlackBerry Enterprise Server from a central location, it is possible that you installed a standalone BlackBerry Enterprise Server with its own BlackBerry
Configuration Database.
Before you upgrade a standalone BlackBerry Enterprise Server, consider the following questions:
• Do you expect the number of BlackBerry device users to increase beyond 500?
• Do you plan to add BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances to the BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment?
• Do you plan to consolidate the standalone BlackBerry Enterprise Server with another BlackBerry Domain in your organization's environment?
To consolidate multiple BlackBerry Domain instances in your organization's environment (for example, to make management of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server easier or permit multiple BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances to use distributed BlackBerry Enterprise Server components), you can use the BlackBerry Enterprise Transporter to move user accounts from one BlackBerry Configuration Database to another.
You can consider the following infrastructure variations as you plan the upgrade process for your organization's environment.
Variation
MSDE or Microsoft SQL Server used to host the BlackBerry Configuration
Database
BlackBerry Configuration Database installed locally or on a separate computer
Description
If your organization's environment includes MSDE, you must upgrade to a later version of Microsoft SQL Server.
You can upgrade to Microsoft SQL Server Express if your organization's environment does not include many BlackBerry device users and you do not plan to add any more.
You can upgrade to Microsoft SQL Server if you expect the number of
BlackBerry device users to increase to more than 500.
You can upgrade the database server that hosts the BlackBerry Configuration
Database before you upgrade the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
If you expect the number of BlackBerry device users to increase, you might want to install the BlackBerry Configuration Database on its own computer. When you install the BlackBerry Configuration Database on its own computer, you increase the system resources that are available to the BlackBerry Configuration
Database and BlackBerry Enterprise Server, and make it easier to configure features such as high availability.

If you upgrade a BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment that includes more than one BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance, you can choose from a variety of upgrade processes, depending on the existing architecture of the BlackBerry
Domain and how you expect the architecture to change as you add BlackBerry device users, install additional BlackBerry
Enterprise Server components and instances, and configure new features.
You can consider the following infrastructure variations as you plan the upgrade process for your organization's environment.
Variation
MSDE or Microsoft SQL Server used to host the BlackBerry Configuration
Database
BlackBerry Configuration Database installed locally or on a separate computer network proximity of the BlackBerry
Enterprise Server, BlackBerry
Configuration Database, messaging servers, and other third-party systems
Description
If your organization's environment includes MSDE, you must upgrade to a later version of Microsoft SQL Server.
You can upgrade to Microsoft SQL Server Express if your organization's environment does not include many BlackBerry device users and you do not plan to add any more.
You can upgrade to Microsoft SQL Server if you expect the number of
BlackBerry device users to increase to more than 500.
You can upgrade the database server that hosts the BlackBerry Configuration
Database before you upgrade the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
If you expect the number of BlackBerry device users to increase, you might want to install the BlackBerry Configuration Database on its own computer. When you install the BlackBerry Configuration Database on its own computer, you increase the system resources that are available to the BlackBerry Configuration
Database and BlackBerry Enterprise Server, and make it easier to configure features such as high availability.
If you configure the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, BlackBerry Configuration
Database, messaging servers, and other third-party systems on separate LANs connected by a WAN, the upgrade process takes longer to complete.

Upgrade Planning Guide Upgrading a BlackBerry Domain
20
Planning to upgrade the BlackBerry Domain when your organization's infrastructure is in one location
If you previously installed the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances, BlackBerry Configuration Database, and messaging servers on a single LAN and want to limit the infrastructure changes during the upgrade process, you can use an in-place upgrade process.
During the in-place upgrade process, you upgrade one of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances, install a BlackBerry
Administration Service, and upgrade the BlackBerry Configuration Database. After you upgrade the BlackBerry Enterprise
Server instance and the BlackBerry Configuration Database, you can upgrade the remaining BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances one at a time.
For example, ABC Company, a consulting firm, has a head office in Toronto, Canada. The company has 500 consultants that work from home and access their email messages and other resources over a VPN connection, and approximately 300 employees that work from the head office. The organization's IT systems, which include the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances, Microsoft SQL Server that hosts the BlackBerry Configuration Database, and Microsoft Exchange servers, are located in the data center at the head office. The organization's infrastructure includes the following configurations:
• The BlackBerry Configuration Database uses the BlackBerry Enterprise Server 4.1 SP7 schema.
• The Microsoft SQL Server that hosts the BlackBerry Configuration Database is on a computer that is separate from the computers that host the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances.
• The help desk employees use BlackBerry Manager version 4.1 SP7 to manage the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
• The BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances, Microsoft SQL Server, and Microsoft Exchange servers are located on the same high-speed LAN.
If your organization's environment is similar to ABC Company, you can consider using an in-place upgrade process to upgrade your organization's BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment.

Planning to upgrade the BlackBerry Domain and test the latest version during the upgrade process
If your organization has a distributed BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment, you can test the latest BlackBerry
Enterprise Server version during the upgrade process before you upgrade the existing BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances that have user accounts assigned to them.
You can consider using the phased upgrade process to test the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version if one or more of the following conditions applies to your organization's environment:
• You want to upgrade the existing BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances and the BlackBerry Configuration Database.
• You want to test the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version before you upgrade the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances that have user accounts assigned to them.
• You are not a database administrator and you do not have permissions to upgrade the BlackBerry Configuration
Database using the BlackBerry Enterprise Server setup application.
• Your analysis indicates that you must install the BlackBerry Administration Service on a computer that is separate from the computers that host the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances.
• Test user accounts and extra computers are available for testing the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version.
During the phased upgrade process that includes testing the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version, you install a temporary BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance with test user accounts. A database administrator backs up and upgrades the BlackBerry Configuration Database using the database upgrade scripts. You install the BlackBerry
Administration Service, upgrade the temporary BlackBerry Enterprise Server, test the user accounts on the temporary
BlackBerry Enterprise Server, and upgrade the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances and BlackBerry Enterprise Server components one at a time.

Planning to upgrade an existing BlackBerry
Domain to a new BlackBerry Domain
If your organization's environment includes more than one BlackBerry Domain that you want to consolidate, or if you want to create a BlackBerry Domain for the latest BlackBerry Enterprise Server version during the upgrade process, you can use the BlackBerry Enterprise Transporter to move user accounts from one BlackBerry Domain to another BlackBerry Domain.
You can consider this upgrade process if one or more of the following conditions applies to your organization's environment:
• You want to consolidate multiple BlackBerry Domain instances or create a BlackBerry Domain.
• You need to move the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances and BlackBerry Configuration Database to new hardware.
• You are not a database administrator and you do not have permissions to upgrade the BlackBerry Configuration
Database using the BlackBerry Enterprise Server setup application.
• Your analysis indicates that you must install the BlackBerry Administration Service on a computer that is separate from the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
