Feature

Description

 

 

 

BlackBerry Client for use with Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007,

 

users can send instant messages to contacts that are not included in their

 

contact lists.

 

 

dormant mode

The collaboration clients enter dormant mode after five minutes of inactivity. In

 

dormant mode, the applications do not receive presence updates for contacts.

 

Dormant mode is designed to reduce wireless network traffic in an

 

organization's messaging environment. The collaboration clients turn off

 

dormant mode when users open or use the applications, or receive conference

 

requests, alerts, or messages from contacts.

 

 

BlackBerry Synchronization Service

The BlackBerry Synchronization Service synchronizes organizer data such as tasks, memos, and contacts over the wireless network so that the entries on BlackBerry devices are consistent with the entries in the email applications. With wireless data synchronization and wireless email reconciliation, users are not required to connect their BlackBerry devices to the BlackBerry Desktop Software to synchronize organizer data and reconcile email messages.

The BlackBerry Synchronization Service backs up user settings and data over the wireless network from BlackBerry devices to the BlackBerry Configuration Database. You can restore the user settings and data to BlackBerry devices when the BlackBerry devices are activated over the wireless network. By default, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server automatically backs up the user settings and data over the wireless network.

Synchronization features

You can change the settings for synchronization features so that users can manage the user experience and system resources in your organization's environment.

Feature

Description

 

 

initial synchronization

When the BlackBerry Enterprise Server sends service books to BlackBerry

 

devices to turn on wireless data synchronization, an initial data synchronization

 

process starts. The process synchronizes the data for calendar items and

 

messages between users' BlackBerry devices and the email applications on

 

their computers. It also resolves conflicting or duplicate entries to prevent data

 

loss.

 

By default, the calendar on the BlackBerry device synchronizes up to 31 days in

 

the past from the activation date, and up to 28 years into the future from the

 

activation date.

 

 

synchronization settings

You can configure settings for wireless data synchronization that apply to

 

specific users, user groups, or all users on all BlackBerry Enterprise Server

 

instances. You can define which organizer data items the BlackBerry

 

Synchronization Service synchronizes, how data conflicts are resolved, and

 

whether changes are synchronized in both directions or in one direction only
