Mirror Disk
creating a mirror disk uses a file with a .kmr extension. How can we read back the data from that disk image? For instance I want to make a mirror copy of the target and after it's completed synchronization, take the disk offsite as a backup. How can I get the information back or even verify that it...

Re: Expanding Target and Mirror
That may have been the problem. I can't remember. I will document my steps from here on. But I think the software should be able to report a problem like this. I'm on hold right now while I set up an entirely new San device and server.

Re: Expanding Target and Mirror
Thank you. This helps a lot. A couple of other questions. When creating a mirror on a server, is it necessary for both the originating server and server holding the copy to be standard server or above or can the server receiving the copy be a personal edition? Also, can you discuss at all the proces...
