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. The default installation will configure the
source to perform an auto-remirror if needed.
1. To determine the current auto-remirror setting, use the get command with the AutoRemirror option.
2. To modify the auto-remirror setting, use the set command with the AutoRemirror option. The AutoRemirror
option is set to 1 for enabled or 0 for disabled. By default, auto-remirror is enabled.
Command GET
Description The Text Client/DTCL sends a request to Storage Mirroring to return the value of a Storage
Mirroring program setting. The setting is retrieved by Storage Mirroring from the registry.
Syntax GET < option > [ machine ]
Options ‹ option —See Storage Mirroring Text Client program settings on page 14-11.
‹ machine —Name of the machine
Examples ‹ get netport
‹ get VerifyLogName
‹ get DefaultAddress
Notes ‹ If you do not specify a machine name, the value from the current source will be returned. If you
have not identified an active source, no data will be returned.
‹ Machine names that contain non-alphanumeric characters must be enclosed in quotation marks.
Command SET
Description The Text Client/DTCL sends a request to Storage Mirroring to modify the value of a Storage
Mirroring program setting. The setting is immediately applied and is then forwarded to the registry
where it is also applied.
Syntax SET < option >=< value > [ machine ]
Options ‹ option —See Storage Mirroring Text Client program settings on page 14-11.
‹ value —See Storage Mirroring Text Client program settings on page 14-11.
‹ machine —Name of the machine
Examples ‹ set netport=1500
‹ set VerifyLogName=”HA server.log”
‹ set DefaultAddress=”129.12.34.3”
Notes ‹ Some settings, although immediately applied to Storage Mirroring, will not take effect until the
client or daemon is restarted. For example, the Text Client must be closed and reopened for a
change to ClientLogName to take effect. And the daemon must be restarted to cause a change in
the modules loaded if the LoadSourceTarget setting is changed. See
Storage Mirroring Text Client
program settings on page 14-11 for details on each configuration option.
‹ 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.
‹ Machine names that contain non-alphanumeric characters must be enclosed in quotation marks.
