Hey penguin,

Quick question on the order of events. Since the DB is upgraded, I'm presuming all BES servers 'Blackberry Services' must be shut down? I have four BES (two instances), on 5.0.1 MR3:

BES1a
BES1b

BES2a
BES2b

On the MR patches (no DB update), I could patch the stand-by, fail-over, then patch the primary.

With SP2, the first BES I update will update the DB, I'll need to ensure the other BES are not read/writing to the DB, hence shutting down 'all' Blackberry services on all BES. Just like back in the ole 4.1 days!

Let me know if this is correct. Thx!
