BlackBerry Configuration Database mirroring
The following diagram shows how you can configure the BlackBerry® Configuration Database with principal and mirror instances
for high availability. The BlackBerry Configuration Database supports an optional witness. The BlackBerry® Enterprise Server
connects to the principal BlackBerry Configuration Database directly, and can fail over to the mirror BlackBerry Configuration
Database if the principal BlackBerry Configuration Database stops responding.
The primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server connects to the principal BlackBerry Configuration Database and accesses data from
it. The name of the mirror BlackBerry Configuration Database is stored in the Windows® registry of the computers that hosts the
primary and standby BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances. The BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances do not connect to the
mirror BlackBerry Configuration Database until after the principal BlackBerry Configuration Database stops responding.
The primary BlackBerry Enterprise Server connects to the messaging server and processes the messaging data that it sends to
and receives from BlackBerry devices.
The standby BlackBerry Enterprise Server opens standby connections to the principal BlackBerry Configuration Database and
the messaging server.
Scenario: What happens after the principal BlackBerry Configuration Database stops
responding
If a principal BlackBerry® Configuration Database stops responding, the response of the primary BlackBerry® Enterprise
Server depends on whether it can connect to the mirror BlackBerry Configuration Database.
