Prevent the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service from using scalable HTTP

By default, the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service 5.0 SP2 or later uses scalable HTTP, which permits the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service to use fewer system resources and to establish more socket connections at one time than previous versions of the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service. When a BlackBerry MDS Connection Service uses scalable HTTP, it streams data to and from BlackBerry devices instead of storing and forwarding the data. If you want a BlackBerry MDS Connection Service to process data as it did in previous versions of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, you can prevent a BlackBerry MDS Connection Service from using scalable HTTP.
  1. In the BlackBerry Administration Service, on the Servers and components menu, expand BlackBerry Solution topology > BlackBerry Domain > Component view > MDS Connection Service.
  2. Click the instance that you want to prevent from using scalable HTTP.
  3. Click Edit instance.
  4. On the General tab, in the Socket connection settings section, in the Use scalable HTTP drop-down list, click No.
  5. Click Save all.
