Specifying a name for the BlackBerry Administration Service pool during
the installation process
During the installation process, the setup application prompts you to specify the name of the BlackBerry®
Administration Service pool.
The BlackBerry Administration Service instances use the pool name for interprocess communication and when you
configure BlackBerry Administration Service high availability using DNS round robin. You must specify a valid DNS
host name during the installation process, even if you do not configure BlackBerry Administration Service high
availability using DNS round robin.
The setup application uses the FQDN of the computer that you install the first BlackBerry Administration Service
instance on as the default value for the pool name. If you keep the default value and configure BlackBerry
Administration Service high availability using DNS round robin at a later time, you must use the BlackBerry
Configuration Panel to change the pool name to the host name for the pool.
The name for the BlackBerry Administration Service pool does not impact BlackBerry Administration Service high
availability that uses a hardware load balancer.
For more information about BlackBerry Administration Service high availability, see the BlackBerry Enterprise Server
Planning Guide.
