Upgrade Guide

Setting up the database connection

The BlackBerry® Enterprise Server can connect to the BlackBerry Configuration Database on the Microsoft® SQL Server®

using either Windows® authentication or database authentication.

If you use Windows authentication, the BlackBerry Manager logs in to the BlackBerry Configuration Database using the

Windows account that you used to complete the installation.

If you use database authentication with Microsoft SQL Server, the BlackBerry Manager authenticates to the BlackBerry

Configuration Database using the database credentials that you used when the database was set up.

If you install the BlackBerry Configuration Database on an IBM® DB2® UDB, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server can connect

to the database using Windows authentication only. The BlackBerry Manager logs in to the BlackBerry Configuration

Database using the Windows account that you used to complete the installation.

Using the existing BlackBerry Configuration Database after the upgrade

to the BlackBerry Enterprise Server

If you plan to use the existing BlackBerry® Configuration Database on its existing computer when you upgrade to the

BlackBerry® Enterprise Server, no setup is required before you begin the upgrade process.

During the upgrade process, you specify whether the BlackBerry Configuration Database is installed locally or remotely, the

name of the BlackBerry Configuration Database, and the name of the database server.

Specifying permissions when connecting to the BlackBerry Enterprise

Server databases using Windows authentication

During the installation process, if you choose to connect to the BlackBerry® Enterprise Server databases using Windows®

authentication, the Windows account that you use must have permissions on the database server. The type of permissions

depends on the setup option that you choose, and whether you create the BlackBerry Enterprise Server databases on the

same computer as the BlackBerry Enterprise Server components or on another database server.

Perform one of the following actions:

• If you create the BlackBerry® Configuration Database on the same computer as the BlackBerry® Enterprise

Server, or if you install the BlackBerry MDS Integration Service, assign the system administrator permission to the

Microsoft® Windows® account that you are using to complete the installation.
