Deactivating BlackBerry devices without applied IT policies
To prevent BlackBerry® devices that do not have an IT policy applied successfully from remaining active on a BlackBerry®
Enterprise Server, you can set the Disable Users With Unapplied IT Policy field to True. The Disable User Time Limit field specifies
the amount of time (in hours) that a BlackBerry device can be active on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server without having an IT policy
applied on that device.
If you set the Disable Users With Unapplied IT Policy field, by default, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server sends the IT policy to the
BlackBerry device every 30 minutes until the device applies the IT policy successfully or the time limit expires. If the time limit
expires, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server deactivates the PIN for the BlackBerry device user. The allowed range for this setting
is 0 hours (to deactivate BlackBerry devices in a failed IT policy state automatically) through 8760 hours.
