KB11608 - How to use the Clear and Sync GroupWise System Address Book option in BBMgr
KB11608 - How to use the Clear and Sync GroupWise System Address Book option in BlackBerry Manager
Environment
- BlackBerry® Enterprise Server version 4.1 2 to 4.1.6 for Novell® GroupWise®
Overview
Starting in BlackBerry Enterprise Server software version 4.1 Service Pack 2, the option Clear and Sync GroupWise System Address Book is present on the BlackBerry Manager.
This option processes two automated commands. The first command clears the MbAddressLookup table in the BlackBerry Configuration Database. The second command repopulates this data by processing the GWSystemAddressLookup executable, which runs against the primary GroupWise System Address Book in the GroupWise domain.
If after adding a new BlackBerry smartphone user or making changes to an existing BlackBerry smartphone user on the GroupWise System Address Book and the change is either not picked up or is only partially correct on the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, it is possible the database is not being updated correctly. Follow the resolution that matches the cause described below.

This issue can be caused by the following:
- The Clear and Sync System Address Book was not run after the changes were made to the GroupWise system address book.
