If you're running the DB services locally(MSDE/DQLExpress) I'd expect your top end to be ~400 users depending on how much your other VM's are hitting disk and CPU. RIM's guidance is that exact configuration for 500 users with a locally installed DB Service. - John Barsodi From: Adam Greene [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 2008 2:42 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: BES capacity Hi, We're trying to roll out BES services to integrate with Zimbra (kind of painful since Zimbra's support for this is in Beta right now, but we've been promised it will work right by end of Q3!). Right now the BES is sitting on a Win2K3 VPS with 1.5GB RAM, sharing a 2GHz Xeon quad processor with two other VMs. I wonder how many devices could sync to a VM like this. We're aiming at a minimum of 125. Do you think this is realistic?
