For example, to preview the user migration to a database server named db2udbserver1 and a BlackBerry

Synchronize BlackBerry device capabilities
When users connect their BlackBerry devices to the BlackBerry Desktop Manager, the BlackBerry Desktop
Manager writes whether the BlackBerry device is capable of wireless synchronization into the user’s mailbox.
When the BlackBerry Enterprise Server is upgraded, the BlackBerry Synchronization Service sends service books
to those BlackBerry devices that are capable of wireless synchronization automatically.
If you do not support the BlackBerry Desktop Manager in your BlackBerry environment, you must activate the
BlackBerry device over the wireless network to enable wireless synchronization.
> If you want wireless synchronization to occur automatically after the upgrade process completes, instruct
users with BlackBerry Device Software Version 4.0 or later to connect their BlackBerry devices to the
BlackBerry Desktop Manager Version 3.6.3 or later before you upgrade the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
Preparing to upgrade from BlackBerry Enterprise Server
Version 4.0
When you upgrade from BlackBerry Enterprise Server Version 4.0, you upgrade the database schema from earlier
versions. Prepare for this upgrade by cleaning up the data and creating backups before upgrading the BlackBerry
Configuration Database.
