1.1.3  Data Synchronizer Configurations

When you install the Data Synchronizer Mobility Pack, the Synchronizer services, the GroupWise 
Connector, and the Mobility Connector are all installed on the same server. The Synchronizer server 
can have one instance of each connector. Multiple instances of the same connector cannot be created 
on a single Synchronizer server.

A single-server Synchronizer system can meet the synchronization needs of approximately 200 to 
300 users, depending on the amount of synchronization traffic generated by those users. You might 
need to set up a Synchronizer system that includes multiple Synchronizer servers for the following 
reasons:

Š

Number of Users: 

You need to support synchronization for more than 200 to 300 users.

Š

Location of Users: 

You need to support users that are located in distant geographical locations 

where synchronization performance could be adversely affected by the network connections 
between users and the applications that they want to synchronize data with.

Š

Location of Synchronized Applications: 

Applications for which data is being synchronized 

have meaningful organizational segments (for example, GroupWise domains and post offices). 
Having a Synchronizer server associated with each organizational segment would help balance 
the synchronization load across all users of the application.

Š

Quality of Service: 

Certain segments of your user population, such as executives of your 

organization, might expect and require a higher level of synchronization performance than 
typical users. This higher quality of service can be accomplished by setting up a small 
Synchronizer system specifically for such high profile users.

Connector-specific considerations for implementing a multi-server Synchronizer system are covered 
in each connector’s 

Installation and Configuration Guide

1.2  Data Synchronizer System Requirements

You, as a Synchronizer administrator, must ensure that the Synchronizer server meets Synchronizer 
system requirements, so that your Synchronizer system can function successfully.
