Configure the Administration Console to connect to the new primary instance
The Administration Console must connect to the primary instance that is assigned the device management role for
Android devices
and iOS
devices. If you assign this role to a different primary instance or high availability
pair, or if a failover occurs in a high availability pair that is assigned the role (and
you want device service to continue on the standby instance), you must connect the Administration Console to the new primary instance that is assigned the
role.
- On the computer that hosts the active Administration Console, navigate to <drive>:\Program Files (x86)\Research In Motion\BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10\RIM.BUDS.Gui\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\classes.
- In a text editor, open config.properties.
- Locate mdm.restServer=<FQDN>:<port>, where <FQDN> is the FQDN of the initial primary instance, and <port> is the port that the Administration Console uses to connect to that computer. For example, mdm.restServer=https://SERVER1.TESTNET.RIM.NET:9081.
- Change <FQDN> to the FQDN of the computer that hosts the new primary instance with the device management role.
-
If necessary, change <port>
to the port that the Administration Console uses to connect to the computer that hosts the new primary instance.
The default port number is 9081. If you upgraded Universal Device Service 6.x to BlackBerry Enterprise Service 10 version 10.1 or later, the default port number is 8081. - Save and close the file.
After you finish: In the Windows Services,
restart the BES10 - Administration Console service.
