Protecting a
BlackBerry Server
To configure protection for a consolidated one-to-one configuration of your BlackBerry servers using
the Application Manager, you will complete the following steps:
1. Install Microsoft SQL Server on the source, if it is not already installed.
2. Install BlackBerry Enterprise Server on the source.
3. Install Microsoft SQL Server on the target, if it is not already installed.
4. Verify that BlackBerry Enterprise Server is shut down on the source server. Otherwise, when
installing the target you must reply No to start the BES services at the end of the installation.
5. Install BlackBerry Enterprise Server on the target, using the same values for BlackBerry server
name, Windows login information, and database name that you used for the source. The SQL
Server name will be the hostname of the target machine, not the source machine.
6. Stop the following BlackBerry Enterprise Server services so that the Storage Mirroring source
can replicate the changes to the target. These may vary based on your environment.

BlackBerry Alert

BlackBerry Attachment Service

BlackBerry Controller

BlackBerry Dispatcher

BlackBerry MDS Connection Service (if installed)

BlackBerry MDS Services - Apache Tomcat Service (if installed)

BlackBerry Policy Service

BlackBerry Router

BlackBerry Synchronization Service
7. Install Storage Mirroring on the source and target servers using the installation defaults. See the
Storage Mirroring Getting Started guide for more information.

13. Validate the Configuration on page 9-1
To protect your BlackBerry server, you will complete the following steps:
1. Enable protection on page 10-1
2. Monitor protection status on page 10-2
In the event of a failure, you will need to perform some additional tasks. These tasks are described
in Failover, Failback, and Restoration on page 11-1.
NOTE:
Microsoft recommends that all service packs be installed independently for each
source and target instance. This ensures that operating system files and registry
entries are applied appropriately.
NOTE:
Having two BlackBerry Enterprise Servers running at the same time with the same
SRP (Server Routing Protocol) key disables that particular SRP key. If the SRP key is
disabled, wireless communication with BlackBerry devices will not function.
