Create a BlackBerry Collaboration Servicepool for high availability
To configure BlackBerry Collaboration Service high availability, you can create a BlackBerry Collaboration Service pool for
each BlackBerry Enterprise Server by associating multiple BlackBerry Collaboration Service instances with the BlackBerry
Enterprise Server. By default, the BlackBerry Collaboration Service instance at the top of the pool list is the instance that
the BlackBerry Enterprise Server assigns the active connection to. If the instance with the active connection stops
responding, the BlackBerry Collaboration Service tries to connect to the next instance in the pool list.
For more information, see the BlackBerry Enterprise Server Planning Guide.
1. In the BlackBerry Administration Service, on the Servers and components menu, expand BlackBerry Solution
topology > BlackBerry Domain > Component view > BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
2. If you configured BlackBerry Enterprise Server pairs, expand the appropriate pair name.
3. Click the name of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance that you want to assign the BlackBerry Collaboration
Service pool to.
4. Click Edit instance.
5. Click one of the following tabs, depending on which instant messaging server that you installed in your organization's
environment:
Supported IBM Lotus Domino instances
Supported Novell GroupWise Messenger instances
Supported Microsoft Office Live Communications Server 2005 instances
Supported Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 instances
Supported Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 instances
Supported Microsoft Lync Server 2010 instances
6. In the list of current instances, add the BlackBerry Collaboration Service instances to the pool.
7. Click Save all.
8. Repeat steps 3 to 7 for each BlackBerry Enterprise Server instance in your organization's environment that you want
to configure to use a BlackBerry Collaboration Service pool.
