Hardware requirements: BlackBerry Enterprise
Server
4
The following are requirements for a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server and the BlackBerry Enterprise Server components
that you install on a single computer, and excludes the BlackBerry Collaboration Service. The requirements are for a
BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment that includes users that receive 100 to 200 email messages each day.
You can improve the performance and reliability of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server by installing the BlackBerry
Enterprise Server components on multiple computers. If your BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment supports
up to 1000 users, install the BlackBerry Configuration Database on a computer that is separate from the computer
that hosts the BlackBerry Enterprise Server. If your BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment supports up to 2000
users, install the BlackBerry Configuration Database and the BlackBerry Administration Service on computers that
are separate from the computer that hosts the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
