Installation guide

If the user accounts in your organization's environment are stored in more than one domain in a Microsoft® Active Directory®

forest, you must configure the LDAP settings that the BlackBerry Administration Service uses so that the BlackBerry Administration

Service can search the global catalog.

1. During the installation process, specify the DNS host name of a global catalog server as the LDAP server name that is

included in the LDAP server URL.

2. Specify the LDAP port number to be 3268.

3. Specify the LDAP user name and password to be the user name and password of an administrator account that has permission

to read user attributes from the global catalog.

Migrating BlackBerry MDS Runtime Applications

Previous versions of the BlackBerry® MDS Integration Service used a BlackBerry MDS Integration Service database (mdss), and

a BlackBerry MDS Integration Service discovery database (mdss_dis) to store BlackBerry® MDS Runtime Applications and

application data. The latest BlackBerry MDS Integration Service version does not use a BlackBerry MDS Integration Service

discovery database. During the upgrade process, the setup application merges all tables of the BlackBerry MDS Integration

Service discovery database into the BlackBerry MDS Integration Service database. As a result, the upgrade process does not

migrate all published BlackBerry MDS Integration Service applications such as BlackBerry MDS Runtime Applications.

To migrate BlackBerry MDS Runtime Applications, you must republish the BlackBerry MDS Runtime Applications to the BlackBerry

MDS Application Repository after the upgrade process completes, or you must migrate the BlackBerry MDS Integration Service

discovery database to the BlackBerry MDS Integration Service version 4.1 database before you start the upgrade process. If you

migrate the BlackBerry MDS Integration Service discovery database and install new BlackBerry MDS Integration Service instances

instead of upgrading the existing BlackBerry MDS Integration Service instances, you must reconfigure any backend notification

subscriptions. If you migrate the BlackBerry MDS Integration Service discovery database, BlackBerry devices that are running

BlackBerry® MDS Runtime versions earlier than version 4.5 remove the applications that are installed.

Migrate data from the BlackBerry MDS Integration Service discovery database to the

BlackBerry MDS Integration Service database

1. Open the Microsoft® SQL Server® console.

2. Generate scripts for the following tables in the BlackBerry® MDS Integration Service discovery database:

• REGISTRY_APP

• REGISTRY_APP_LOCALE

• REGISTRY_APP_KEYWORD

• REGISTRY_APP_DEPEND

3. To create the tables in the BlackBerry MDS Integration Service database, execute the generated scripts against the

BlackBerry MDS Integration Service database.

4. Export data from the tables that are listed in step 2.
