72 Google Apps Connector for BlackBerry Enterprise Server Installation and Administration Guide
Multiple Agents
If you are seeing consistent performance problems, you may be able to improve performance
by enabling multiple BES Agent processes.
By default the Google Apps Connector enables the following registry key:
If you are running Google Apps Connector with a local MSDE instance for your configuration
database, you are limited to 2 agents. If you are using Microsoft SQL Server, you can support
up to 5 agents.
SQL Server is required for deployments larger than 250 users in order to support 5 agents.
After you have changed this registry setting, restart the BlackBerry Controller and Dispatcher
services. Multiple agents will start.
Note: Multiple agents do not start until you have created multiple users and restarted the
BlackBerry Controller and Dispatch services. After you first create more than 5 users, restart
these services so that your server can optimize agent use.
Backup Profiles
You can make a backup of a user profile in the Control Panel Mail applet. If you plan to make
changes to a profile and want to be sure you don’t lose the old profile, back the profile up in
Control Panel.
To create a backup profile
1. Open Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Mail -> Show Profiles.
2. Select your profile.
3. Copy to another profile name. For instance, you could use the same profile but with the
final extension “
.bak
”. This is not a file on the file system, but a copy of the MAPI profile.
