I haven't done this from BPS to BESX, but it worked from BPS to BES 5. Setup a virtual server with BESX then run the migration tool to migrate users to the new database. Make sure they are running at least 4.5, otherwise you'll end up re-activating. Once this has been done, upgrade your server from BPS to BESX and migrate the users again. I have to upgrade a server in this way, and will be trying this exact procedure, or something similar to it.

I am planning on moving from BPS to BES Express on the same server, and I was told by RIM that I need to uninstall BPS, and then do a security wipe on my handhelds before I can activate them on BES Express. My question is, can I just remove them from BPS and then reactivate the devices on BES Express without doing the wipe? Thanks for your help! _______________________________________________ Bes-Admins mailing list [email protected] http://www.dataoutages.com/mailman/listinfo/bes-admins http://www.dataoutages.com http://www.dataoutagenews.com RSS Feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/Bes-admins --------------------------------- Bes-Admins mailing list is sponsored by Dataoutagenews.com. http://www.dataoutagenews.com _______________________________________________ Bes-Admins mailing list [email protected] http://www.dataoutages.com/mailman/listinfo/bes-admins http://www.dataoutages.com http://www.dataoutagenews.com RSS Feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/Bes-admins --------------------------------- Bes-Admins mailing list is sponsored by Dataoutagenews.com. http://www.dataoutagenews.com
