I usually stop the services on all BES servers prior to upgrading. I then proceed to upgrade one server and allow it to update the database. I keep all services stopped and then restart the first server. Once the first server comes back up I upgrade the second server. After the second server restarts, I start the services on both servers to make sure all services are working and mail is coming throug.

I have to BES servers and need to update to 4.1.6. I'm sure there is probably a database update, so how do I handle this? Do I kill the services on the second server before I update the first? When I upgrade the second, do i install an MSDE local and then redirect afterwards? This is the kind of things I need to know. Thank for any help!! -- Colin _______________________________________________ Bes-Admins mailing list [email protected] http://www.dataoutages.com/mailman/listinfo/bes-admins http://www.dataoutages.com RSS Feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/Bes-admins --------------------------------- Bes-Admins mailing list is Sponsored by Port3101.org : Your BES Connection. http://www.dataoutages.com/3101
