Installation and Administration Guide BlackBerry Enterprise Transporter and destination BlackBerry Enterprise Server must be running. The destination BlackBerry Enterprise Server must use a different SRP ID than the source BlackBerry Enterprise Server. Live mode is the default mode of the BlackBerry Enterprise Transporter. When using live mode, the tool monitors organizer data synchronization, calendar synchronization, and the delivery of IT administration commands (such as Resend IT Policy or Switch Service) to verify that the migration process completed successfully. Bulk mode Running the BlackBerry Enterprise Transporter in bulk mode refers to migrating all of the user accounts from a source BlackBerry Enterprise Server to a destination BlackBerry Enterprise Server. The source and destination instances must not be running, except for the BlackBerry Administration Service and the IBM Lotus Domino services (where applicable) on the destination BlackBerry Enterprise Server. In a Microsoft Exchange or Novell GroupWise environment, you must configure the destination BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances to use the same instance names (ServerConfig.ServiceName) and SRP IDs as the source BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances. In an IBM Lotus Domino environment, you must configure the destination BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances to use the same SRP IDs as the source BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances. When using bulk mode, the tool does not monitor IT administration commands (such as Resend IT Policy or Switch Service) to verify that the migration process completed successfully. If you enable bulk mode and configure custom default settings to apply to individual user accounts (the IT policies, software configurations, and groups to assign to user accounts), the destination BlackBerry Administration Service must process the different settings for each user account. As a result, the migration process might take longer than expected to complete. If you enable bulk mode, it is a best practice to configure a single default setting to apply to all user accounts. You can modify the IT policy, software configuration, and group assignments using the BlackBerry Administration Service after the migration is complete. If you want to assign custom default settings to individual user accounts as part of the migration process, it is a best practice to use live mode. Options for migrating user accounts Option Move one or more user accounts at a time Description If your organization's environment includes more than one MDM domain, and you want to move select user accounts from one MDM domain to another, you can use the tool in live mode. For example, you can use this option if you maintain multiple MDM domains for different groups in the organization, and you want to move users over to the 7

and destination BlackBerry Enterprise Server must be running. The destination BlackBerry Enterprise Server must use a
different SRP ID than the source BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
Live mode is the default mode of the BlackBerry Enterprise Transporter.

Bulk mode
Running the BlackBerry Enterprise Transporter in bulk mode refers to migrating all of the user accounts from a source
BlackBerry Enterprise Server to a destination BlackBerry Enterprise Server. The source and destination instances must not
be running, except for the BlackBerry Administration Service and the IBM Lotus Domino services (where applicable) on the
destination BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
In a Microsoft Exchange or Novell GroupWise environment, you must configure the destination BlackBerry Enterprise
Server instances to use the same instance names (ServerConfig.ServiceName) and SRP IDs as the source BlackBerry
Enterprise Server instances. In an IBM Lotus Domino environment, you must configure the destination BlackBerry
Enterprise Server instances to use the same SRP IDs as the source BlackBerry Enterprise Server instances.
When using bulk mode, the tool does not monitor IT administration commands (such as Resend IT Policy or Switch Service)
to verify that the migration process completed successfully.
If you enable bulk mode and configure custom default settings to apply to individual user accounts (the IT policies,
software configurations, and groups to assign to user accounts), the destination BlackBerry Administration Service must
process the different settings for each user account. As a result, the migration process might take longer than expected to
complete.
If you enable bulk mode, it is a best practice to configure a single default setting to apply to all user accounts. You can
modify the IT policy, software configuration, and group assignments using the BlackBerry Administration Service after the
migration is complete. If you want to assign custom default settings to individual user accounts as part of the migration
process, it is a best practice to use live mode.
