I have ran into an issue whilst migrating the BlackBerry SQL database from our BES server to our SQL Cluster, I have been following the RIM KB03112 - How to move the BlackBerry Configuration Database to a new Microsoft SQL Server instance.

I have ran through the document, when I get Task 4 - Configure the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, For BlackBerry Enterprise Server software version 4.1, install the database notification system section, I have edited the NotifyInstall.sql file and replaced "_DATABASENAME_" with the name of our database "BESMgmt" and ran the script.

I got an error message advising that it could not continue as the database collations do not match, on investigation the BES database collation is set as Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS, but the SQL Cluster collation is set as SQL_Latin_General_CP1_CI_AS, so for the time being we have rolled back the migration until we can find a way around this, any help would be appreciated.

Don't use the database notification system. It isn't needed for BES to function and honestly will only cause you more trouble at this point.
