Setting auto-remirror

In the event of a source machine failure or if the Storage Mirroring service 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.

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. 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.
