Calculating replication set size
While Storage Mirroring is mirroring, the Text Client displays statistics to keep you informed of its progress. If the size of the
replication set is determined before the mirror is started, Storage Mirroring can display the percentage of the replication set
that has been mirrored. If the size was not calculated prior to starting the mirror, it displays
Mirroring . You can calculate
the replication set size manually or on connection.
1. Use the repset calculate DTCL command to manually calculate the size of the replication set.
2. To calculate the size of the replication set automatically upon connection, verify the setting of the
CalculateOnConnect option.
a. To determine if the replication set size will be calculated when the connection is established, use the get command
with the CalculateOnConnect option.
