When to move BES service account We have a single BES 5.0 Service Pack 2 Maintenance Release 4 server. Currently we are in the process of migrating from Exchange 2003 to 2010. Our Exchange servers are configured independently. Each server has its own send connector directly to the internet, and each server has a separate URL for OWA etc. I've left all users who have BlackBerry's installed on the Exchange 2003 server. I have been reviewing the BES KB article: "How to migrate from Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 or 2007 to Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 in a BlackBerry Enterprise Server 5.0 environment" http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/dynamickc.do?externalId=KB22601&sliceID=1&command=show&forward=nonthreadedKC&kcId=KB22601 I have completed Tasks 1 and 2, but have held up before actually moving the BES service account to the 2010 server, as I figure this is probably the point of no return... My question is a matter of timing. At what point do I move the BES service account? Do I move it first, then move all the BES users? Or can I start moving users to the new Exchange 2010 server and leave the BES service account on the 2003 server and just move it later? Thanks! _______________________________________________ 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
