Follow along with RIM's guidelines here and things should go smoothly. I've done this move several times, and downtime is very minimal. In my case, the users didn't even know it happened. (or they were just quiet about it!) http://www.port3101.org/featured-blackberry-kb-articles/133-kb03112-how-move-besmgmt-database-new-sql-server-instance.html

Was there any down time involved? Thanks.
