The following responses assume that the messaging server and BlackBerry® Infrastructure are available.
Response of a primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server that can connect to the mirror BlackBerry Configuration Database
1. The primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server loses its connection to the principal BlackBerry Configuration Database.
2. The primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server connects to the mirror BlackBerry Configuration Database.
3. The primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server remains the primary instance.
Response of a primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server that cannot connect to the mirror BlackBerry Configuration Database
1. The primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server loses its connection to the principal BlackBerry Configuration Database.
2. The primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server tries to connect to the mirror BlackBerry Configuration Database, but is
unsuccessful.
3. The primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server lowers its health score and continues to provide limited services.
One of the following events occurs:
• If the standby BlackBerry Enterprise Server can open a connection to the principal or mirror BlackBerry Configuration
Database, it demotes the primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server and promotes itself to become the primary instance.
• If the standby BlackBerry Enterprise Server cannot open a connection to the principal or mirror BlackBerry
Configuration Database, it cannot promote itself. You must resolve any issues before the BlackBerry Enterprise Server
pair can recover.
High availability in a distributed environment
If you install multiple BlackBerry® Enterprise Server components on different computers to create a distributed environment, you
can configure the components for high availability. High availability for a distributed component requires that you install two or
more instances of the component in your organization's environment. When an instance stops responding, the other instances
can take over.
When you install multiple BlackBerry Enterprise Server components in a distributed environment, each BlackBerry Enterprise
Server component implements high availablility differently.
Component High availability type Description
BlackBerry Administration
Service
load balancing using DNS
round robin, or a hardware
load balancer
When you install two or more BlackBerry Administration
Service instances, you can create a BlackBerry Administration
Service pool. You can access the BlackBerry Administration
Service instances using a single web address. The load is
distributed across the instances. If a BlackBerry
Administration Service instance stops responding, the pool
routes requests to the available instances.
