Hardware requirements: BlackBerry Enterprise Server
The following are requirements for a BlackBerry Enterprise Server and the BlackBerry Enterprise Server components that
you install on a single computer, and excludes the BlackBerry Collaboration Service. The requirements are for a BlackBerry
Enterprise Server environment that includes users that receive 100 to 200 email messages each day.
You can improve the performance and reliability of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server by installing the BlackBerry Enterprise
Server components on multiple computers. If your BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment supports up to 1000 users,
install the BlackBerry Configuration Database on a computer that is separate from the computer that hosts the BlackBerry
Enterprise Server. If your BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment supports up to 2000 users, install the BlackBerry
Configuration Database and the BlackBerry Administration Service on computers that are separate from the computer that
hosts the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
