0

) Auto-disconnect—Auto-disconnect processing is initiated when the

MemoryQueueToDiskThreshold has been met. Connections will be reestablished
when auto-reconnect occurs.

(

1

) Pause—The Storage Mirroring service stops pulling operations from the driver when the

MemoryQueue ToDiskThreshold has been met. The target will pause the source.
The service will resume pulling operations when the target tells the source to
resume.

-

1048576

Default:

32768 (32K)

GUI Setting

: Server Properties, Source tab, Mirror Queue, Size of Mirror Packets

A higher block size value gives you better throughput, but only to a certain point, then it starts
using more memory (this has to do with the way memory is allocated and deallocated). A lower
block size value produces slower throughput, but uses memory efficiently. The optimal value is
32768.
