To play it safe, I stopped the BES services before the dba's did their work on the SQL server, then started BES again. I was under the assumption, too, that BES would stop working if it lost its connection to the configuration db. Not so?

How long is the SQL server going to be out for? If it's a few minutes, then no problem. Few hours/days... I wouldn't. Also, make sure you do NOT restart BES or BES services when SQL is down. BES will not start back up unless it can reach SQL. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Blackberry Mann Sent: Monday, April 20, 2009 11:05 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Bes-admins] SQL Server Question I need to reboot my SQL server that contains the configuration database.
