Validate Mirror
The user can validate the locked mirror array through the following steps:
1.Right-click the locked mirror array .
2.In the popup menu, select
Validate Mirror
item.
Once the mirror disk is validated, it will be implicit by the program that the data
on the mirror disk is the same with that on the source disk. And the program
will no longer ask the user to synchronize mirror. If the user wants to copy the
data from the source disk to the mirror disk, he has to synchronize mirror
manually.
Verify Mirror
The operation of the verify mirror will compare the data on the source disk and
that on the mirror disk. If any discrepancy is found between them, the program
will ask the user to synchronize mirror to keep the data in the mirror array
identical. The detailed steps to verify mirror are as follows:
1. Right-click the mirror array to be verified.
2. In the popup menu, select
Verify Mirror
item.
By selecting this disk array, the user can check the verification progress at the
status pane.
Suggestion:
After the creation of the mirror array, if the user wants to keep the
source disk data preserved, he shall select
Yes
when the program asks
him whether to synchronize mirror or not.
