Configure the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service and
BlackBerry Collaboration Service to fail over automatically
You can configure the BlackBerry® Enterprise Server to promote a standby connection to a BlackBerry MDS
Connection Service or BlackBerry Collaboration Service automatically if the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service
instance or BlackBerry Collaboration Service instance with the active connection stops responding. Configure the
BlackBerry MDS Connection Service or BlackBerry Collaboration Service to fail over automatically to minimize
interruptions to services for users.
Before you begin: Create the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service pool or BlackBerry Collaboration Service pool.
1. In the BlackBerry Administration Service, on the Servers and components menu, expand High availability >
Highly available BlackBerry Enterprise Servers.
2. Click the name of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server pair that you created the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service
or BlackBerry Collaboration Service pools for.
3. Click Turn on automatic connections failover.
In the System status section, the value of the Blackberry Enterprise Server connection failover mode field changes
to True.
After you finish: To turn off automatic failover, click Turn off automatic connections failover.

Create a BlackBerry Collaboration Service pool for high
availability
To configure BlackBerry® Collaboration Service high availability, you can create a BlackBerry Collaboration Service
pool for each BlackBerry® Enterprise Server by associating multiple BlackBerry Collaboration Service instances with
the BlackBerry Enterprise Server. By default, the BlackBerry Collaboration Service instance at the top of the pool list
is the instance that the BlackBerry Enterprise Server assigns the active connection to. If the instance with the active
connection stops responding, the BlackBerry Collaboration Service tries to connect to the next instance in the pool
list.
For more information, see the BlackBerry Enterprise Server Planning Guide.
1. In the BlackBerry Administration Service, on the Servers and components menu, expand BlackBerry Solution
topology > BlackBerry Domain > Component view > BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
2. If you configured BlackBerry Enterprise Server pairs, expand the appropriate pair name.
3. Click the name of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance that you want to assign the BlackBerry Collaboration
Service pool to.
