  • Page 15: Creating Administrator Accounts

    You assign each BlackBerry Enterprise Server administrator to an administrative role. If you already manage your organization using Windows® groups, assign those groups to the administrative roles so that you can manage role membership through the group.
  • Page 16: Creating A Blackberry Enterprise Server Administrator In A Microsoft Sql Server Environment

    BlackBerry® Enterprise Server administrators are database users who can access the BlackBerry Configuration Database using the BlackBerry Manager. This access is restricted to the administrative roles that the BlackBerry Enterprise Server administrators are assigned to. Only administrators who are assigned to the security administrator role can create other BlackBerry Enterprise Server administrators accounts.
  • Page 17: Assign An Administrative Role To A New Or Existing Microsoft Sql Server Database Account

    The BlackBerry® Configuration Database uses the most restrictive settings to determine which tasks the BlackBerry Manager displays, so an administrator who is assigned both enterprise and junior help desk roles sees only the tasks for the junior help desk role.
