+1 - mine runs better as a VM, I never have to deal with it unless I'm doing an update or adding/deleting a user.

VM is great. I've got about 60 users on a VM w 1GB or RAM and 30 GB Vol. From: Bob Fronk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 23, 2008 6:00 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Blackberry Bold Administration No. I ran BES on a 4 year old PC for a while for 30 users. No problems. I think it had 512mb and a 30GB drive and maybe 1ghz? I now have about 100 users on BES in a VM. The VM server has 8 other VMs on it. I have it configured with 2GB RAM and a 100GB volume. Just follow their minimum requirements for your application. Bob Fronk [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Christopher J. Bosak [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 23, 2008 8:42 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Blackberry Bold Administration I'll grab a look at the pricing. Does BES need real beefy specs to run? In or out of a VM? Christopher J.

I run it in a VM. And for small deployments you can even start with a PC. From: Christopher J.

Are you currently supporting another type of synching (WAS, Good) and now need to add BES/BIS? TVK From: Christopher J.
