7 Days of KB Articles ... Part 6 of 7 (configure lookups between domains) (Domino)

Posted 08-23-2009 at 04:00 AM by hdawg (hdawg's BES blog)

Jeez ... more Domino. That said, I've actually used this and worked with customers to implement it.

No chit chat on this one, just the goods:

7 Days of KB Articles ... Part 5 of 7 (Unable to send email after GC / Ex Reboot)

Posted 08-22-2009 at 04:00 AM by hdawg (hdawg's BES blog)

So, for me I always recommend reboots of a BlackBerry Enterprise Server when there is a scheduled restart / failover of an Exchange or Global Catalog server (heck, BES needs both to work!). Unfortunately, not everyone can do this, and reboots / restarts / failovers aren't always planned.

BES isn't an Exchange cluster-aware application, so it can't effectively handle failovers like we'd all want it to ... well at least until Exchange 2010 (aka E14) is released and then with all MAPI...

7 Days of KB Articles ... Part 4 of 7 (SRP connections through a proxy)

Posted 08-21-2009 at 04:00 AM by hdawg (hdawg's BES blog)

This is actually an awesome KB article. It mostly only applies to people using the NA NOC ... but still a good read. Frankly, I never tell anyone to use a proxy for BES SRP connectivity (mostly because it adds another layer of complexity to something that people already don't usually understand) ... but if you're using / need to proxy SRP connections, here are two supportable ways to do it:

7 Days of KB Articles ... Part 3 of 7 (Move the BES to a new AD Domain) ... Domino

Posted 08-20-2009 at 04:00 AM by hdawg (hdawg's BES blog)

When I saw this KB article, I really scratched my head at first saying "How the heck are they going to do this? ... sounds like a knife-edge type move ... or just move the computer object!". Well, it's for Domino only.

So for all you IBM Lotus Domino lovers, don't say I never did anything for you: KB15751 - Move the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to a new Active Directory Domain.

7 Days of KB Articles ... Part 2 of 7 (Configure the Duress Notification Policy)

Posted 08-19-2009 at 04:00 AM by hdawg (hdawg's BES blog)

Yup ... another series by me ... so really, does anyone use the Duress Notification Policy? ... does anyone even know what it does? Simply put, it's the "someone has a gun to my head and told me to unlock my BlackBerry" policy. The device unlocks and functions normally, but at the same time sends an email to a specified address in IT Policy but doesn't save a copy of the message locally.

I've heard of this implemented so few times and actually have never seen an actual...
