I am trying to add a new user to my BES from my GroupWise server. The user in question has been in our GroupWise system for many years, and his GroupWise works fine. However, he does not show up in a user search on the BES.

He had an old BlackBerry that worked fine, but had to get a new phone. When we went to Enterprise Activate his phone, it would not work, so our helpdesk deleted his user from the BES and tried to re-create it. That is when we found that we could no longer see the user.


We are running BES 5.0.1 MR6 and GroupWise 8.0.2.

In the Search for users menu, click Advanced search.



In the Email criteria section of the Advanced Search, select True in the Queued removal of BlackBerry services drop-down box.



Click Search.






BlackBerry smartphone users who are pending a deletion, but the process has not completed, will be displayed.




The BlackBerry smartphone user account can be purged from the database or removed immediately from the BlackBerry service by performing the following steps:

Did as you asked, there are no users that show as pending for deletion.

Here is an entry from the MAGT log, perhaps this will help:

Problem solved. User was still on the BES, but was the only user whose display name was lastname, firstname. Helpdesk person was not looking for this. All good now, thanks for the help.
