Setting auto-remirror
In the event of a source machine failure or if the Storage Mirroring daemon stops, data integrity between the source and target
cannot be guaranteed. To resolve this issue, the Storage Mirroring auto-reconnect process automatically reestablishes any
source/target connections that existed prior to Storage Mirroring being unavailable. After an auto-reconnect, an
auto-remirror will ensure that data is identical on the source and target machines.
You can establish the auto-remirror settings when establishing the initial connection or you can establish it through the Server
Properties.
1. Right-click a machine name in the left pane of the Management Console and select Properties.
2. Select the Setup tab.
3. Verify that the Perform Remirror After Auto-Reconnect check box is selected to initiate auto-remirror after an
auto-reconnect. Specify the type of mirror that you wish to perform. To understand how these options work together,
see the chart File Differences Auto-Remirror Options on page 7-4.
NOTE: Auto-remirror cannot be set on a connection basis. If auto-remirror is turned on, all connections to that source
machine will perform an auto-remirror on a reconnect.
