BES Logs ... What's in them? Part 12 of 20 (ROUT log)

Posted 07-07-2009 at 05:00 AM by hdawg (hdawg's BES blog)

Welcome to Part 12 of the 20 part series looking at the BES logs. (Part 11).

This will be the only time I provide you with an entire log file within a post ... because this one is just so clean.

The BlackBerry Router Service logs to the ROUT log, and under normal circumstances it should be the smallest of all of your logs that the BES generates.

Before I provide a clean log with nothing special in it, I'll provide some snips from a log with problems....

Managing BES <> Exchange Mappings

Posted 07-07-2009 at 12:23 AM by hdawg (hdawg's BES blog)

I see this time and time again ... A single BES with users from 20+ Exchange servers. One Exchange server has poor performance and instantly 20% of all BES users experience message delays, and all of their mailboxes are in a constant state of RESCAN instead of messages being delivered by UDP NOTIFY.

BES Logs ... What's in them? Part 11 of 20 (POLC log) - Software Configuration

BES Logs ... What's in them? Part 10 of 20 (POLC log) - IT Policy

Posted 07-05-2009 at 05:00 AM by hdawg (hdawg's BES blog)

Welcome to Part 10 of the 20 part series looking at the BES logs. (Part 9).

My favorite log to tail is the BlackBerry Policy Service (POLC) log. To tail the log, use tail.exe from the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit.

The POLC log is the place to go for looking at anything related to IT Policy, Application Control Policy and Software Configuration (Deployment).

Here's what you'll see when pushing an IT Policy:
