Creating a BlackBerry MDS Connection
Service pool for high availability
To configure BlackBerry MDS Connection Service high availablity, you can create a BlackBerry MDS Connection Service
pool for each BlackBerry Enterprise Server by associating multiple BlackBerry MDS Connection Service instances with
each BlackBerry Enterprise Server. If the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service instance with the active connection stops
responding, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server promotes the connection to the next instance in the pool list to an active
connection.
If you configured central push servers, the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service pool should include at least two BlackBerry
MDS Connection Service instances that you also configure as central push servers.
For more information, see the
