Installation and Administration Guide Option Move all user accounts on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server BlackBerry Enterprise Transporter Description MDM domain for a different group, or if you install a new BlackBerry Enterprise Server environment as a new MDM domain, and you want to move users to the new production environment. If you want to move all of the user accounts on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server to a new MDM domain, you can use the tool in bulk mode. For example, you can use this option to upgrade your organization's environment in phases to the latest version of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server. 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.

Option
Description
MDM domain for a different group, or if you install a new BlackBerry Enterprise
Server environment as a new MDM domain, and you want to move users to the
new production environment.
Move all user accounts on a
BlackBerry Enterprise Server
If you want to move all of the user accounts on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server to
a new MDM domain, you can use the tool in bulk mode.
For example, you can use this option to upgrade your organization's
environment in phases to the latest version of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
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.
