Install and configure the
BEMS-Connect
 cluster

  1. Install
    BEMS
     on each
    BEMS-Connect
     server at the primary site. Select the
    Connect
     option in each case. Use a new database to create a new cluster that is dedicated to
    BlackBerry Connect
    .
  2. Install
    BEMS
     on each
    BEMS-Connect
     server at the secondary site. Select the
    Connect
     option in each case. Add the servers to the same database that you used in step 1.
  3. In the
    BEMS-Connect
     console for this cluster, configure a list of
    BlackBerry Proxy
     servers from several servers of BPCluster1 and several servers of BPCluster2. This list is used only for startup. Enable synchronization for all servers.
  4. In the
    BEMS-Connect
     Service Configuration for this cluster, configure a list of
    BlackBerry Proxy
     servers from several servers of BPCluster1 and several servers of BPCluster2. This list is used only for startup. Enable synchronization for all servers.
    If you cannot add a list of servers (depending on the version of your software), then you must change the BPCluster during a disaster recovery event.
  5. Configure the appropriate instant messaging (for example,
    Skype for Business
    ) and
    Active Directory
     settings (for example, the
    Lync
     front-end pool).
  6. Configure a
    BlackBerry Proxy
     server for the .NET service.
  7. Stop the services on the servers at the secondary site.
  8. In the
    BlackBerry UEM
     management console, in the Default
    BlackBerry Dynamics
     connectivity profile, do the following:
    1. Under
      App servers for BlackBerry Connect
      , for each of the
      BEMS-Connect
       servers at the primary site, set the
      Priority
       to PRIMARY and set the
      Primary BlackBerry Proxy cluster
       to BPCluster1.
    2. Under
      App servers for BlackBerry Connect
      , for each of the
      BEMS-Connect
       servers at the secondary site, set the
      Priority
       to SECONDARY and set the
      Primary BlackBerry Proxy cluster
       to BPCluster2.
