Server Settings
While only a subset of the server settings are available through the Management Console, all of the Storage Mirroring server
settings are accessible through the text clients. You can retrieve the value of a setting or you can update the value of a setting.
 Retrieving setting values—To retrieve the current value of a setting, use the Storage Mirroring get command. This
command will return the value of the specified setting from the specified server.
 Updating setting values—To update the value of a setting, use the Storage Mirroring set command. This command will
modify the value of the specified setting on the specified server.
The following table lists all of the Storage Mirroring server settings.

Notes
 Some settings, although immediately applied to Storage Mirroring, will not take effect until the
client or service is restarted. For example, the Text Client must be closed and reopened for a
change to ClientLogName to take effect. And the service must be restarted to cause a change in
the modules loaded if the LoadSourceTarget setting is changed.
 If you do not specify a machine name, the value from the current source will be updated. If you
have not identified an active source, no changes will be made.
 Options that contain non-alphanumeric characters must be enclosed in quotation marks.
