HP StorageWorks Storage Mirroring user's guide (T2558-96073, February 2008)

7. Specify if you want the verification process to Use block checksum comparison/delta block transfer to determine
which blocks are different. If this option is enabled, only those blocks (not the entire files) that are different will be
identified in the log and/or remirrored to the target.
8. Click OK to save the settings.
Verification log
A verification log is created on the source during the verification process. The log identifies what is verified as well as which
files are not synchronized.
1. Right-click the source server on the left pane of the Management Console and select Properties.
2. Select the Logging tab.
3. At the top of the window, Folder identifies the location where the log files identified on this tab are stored. By default,
the log files are stored in the same directory as the Storage Mirroring program files.
4. Under the Verification section, Filename contains the base log file name for the verification process. The replication set
name will be prepended to the base log file name. For example, since the default is
DTVerify.log, the verification log
for the replication set called
UserData would be UserData DTVerify.log.
5. Specify the Maximum Length of the log file. The default is 1048576 bytes (1MB). When the log file reaches this limit, no
additional data will be logged.
6. By default, the log is appended to itself each time a verification process is completed. Clear the Append check box if you
do not want to append to the previous log file.
NOTE:
Database applications may update files without changing the date, time, or file size. Therefore, if you are
using database applications, you should use the block checksum comparison to ensure proper verification
and remirroring.
NOTE: Changes made to the verification log in the Server Properties, Logging tab will apply to all connections
from the current source machine.
