Monitoring connections
When a source is highlighted in the left pane of the Management Console, the connections and their statistics are displayed
in the right pane. Additionally, colors and icons are used for the connections, and the Storage Mirroring servers, to help you
monitor your connections. Review the Connection Statistics and Connection and Server Display tables for statistics and status
descriptions. (Statistics marked with an asterisk (*) are not displayed, by default.)
Connection Statistics
Statistic Description
Replication Set Replication set indicates the name of the connected replication set.
Connection ID The connection ID is the incremental counter used to number each connection established. This
number is reset to one each time the Storage Mirroring service is restarted.
Target Name The name of the target as it appears in the server tree in the left pane of the Management Console.
If the server’s name is not in the server tree, the IP address will be displayed.
Target IP The target IP is the IP address on the target machine where the mirroring and replication data is
being transmitted.
Target Data State ‹ OK —The data on the target is in a good state.
‹ Mirroring —The target is in the middle of a mirror process. The data will not be in a good state
until the mirror is complete.
‹ Mirror Required —The data on the target is not in a good state because a remirror is required.
This may be caused by an incomplete or stopped mirror or an operation may have been dropped
on the target.
‹ Restore required —The data on the source and target do not match because of a failover
condition. Restore the data from the target back to the source. If you want to discard the
changes on the target, you can remirror to resynchronize the source and target.
‹ Snapshot reverted —The data on the source and target do not match because a snapshot has
been applied on the target. Restore the data from the target back to the source. If you want to
discard the changes on the target, you can remirror to resynchronize the source and target.
Target Status ‹ OK —The target machine is active and online.
‹ Not Loaded —The target module is not loaded on the target. (For example, the activation code
is invalid.)
‹ Paused —The target machine is paused by user intervention.
‹ Retrying —The target machine is retrying operations for the connection.
This field may not be updated until there is source/target activity.
Commit Mode * The commit mode status indicates the connection status.
‹ Real-time —Data is being transmitted to the target machine in real-time.
‹ Scheduled —Data is waiting to be transmitted to the target machine until one or more transmit
options have been met.
Transmit Mode ‹ Started —Data is being transferred to the target machine.
‹ Paused —If the transmission is real-time and the transmission has been paused, the Transmit
Mode indicates Paused.
‹ Scheduled —If the transmission is scheduled, the Transmit Mode indicates Scheduled.
‹ Stopped —Data is not being transferred to the target machine.
‹ Error —There is a transmission error.
