Install a 
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
 instance

You must install each 
BlackBerry Connectivity Node
 instance on a separate computer. Perform the following steps for each instance you want to install.
  1. Log in to the computer that you want to install the 
    BlackBerry Connectivity Node
     instance on.
    Unless you are installing the 
    BlackBerry Connectivity Node
     instance in a DMZ, it is a best practice to use the same service account that was used to install the primary 
    BlackBerry UEM
     components.
  2. Copy the 
    BlackBerry UEM
     installation files to the computer.
    Do not copy used installation files from another computer. You must re-extract the installation files on each computer.
  3. In the 
    BlackBerry UEM
     installation folder, double-click 
    Setup.exe
    . If a 
    Windows
     message appears and requests permission for Setup.exe to make changes to the computer, click 
    Yes
    .
  4. In the 
    Language selection
     dialog box, select your language.
  5. Click 
    OK
    .
  6. In the 
    BlackBerry UEM
     setup application screen, click

     check boxes, and select the 
    Device connectivity components
     check box.
    For information about the components that will be installed, see the Architecture content and the Planning content.
  10. Click 
    Next
    .
  11. In the 
    Installation requirements
     dialog box, you can check to see if your computer has met the requirements to install the 
    BlackBerry Connectivity Node
    . Click 
    Next
    .
    The setup application may display a warning that indicates that 
    Microsoft .NET Framework
     4.5 is not installed. You can ignore this warning and proceed with the installation. The setup application will automatically install 
    Microsoft .NET Framework
     4.5 for you if it is not detected on your computer. If a later version of 
    Microsoft .NET Framework
     is already installed, the 
    BlackBerry UEM
     setup application does not install 
    Microsoft .NET Framework
     4.5.
  12. In the 
    BlackBerry UEM configuration
     dialog box, confirm the host name. Click 
    Next
    .

    Folder locations
     dialog box, perform the following actions:
    1.  Specify the location of the installation folder and log file folder.
    2. If you receive a message saying there is not enough space remaining, create extra space to install the 
      BlackBerry Connectivity Node
      .
    3. If you receive a message asking you to create the installation and logs folder locations, click 
      Yes
      .
  14. Click 
    Next
    .
  15. In the 
    Service account
     dialog box, type the password for the service account. Click 
    Next
    .
  16. In the 
    Installation summary
     dialog box, click 
    Install
    .
  17. In the 
    Installing
     dialog box, click 
    Next
     when the installation is complete.
  18. In the 
    Console addresses
     dialog box, you can select the 
    Export the console addresses to a file
     check box to save the address of the 
    BlackBerry Connectivity Node
     console (http://localhost:8088) to a text file on your computer.
    You can open the 
    BlackBerry Connectivity Node
     console at any time from the Start menu.
