Installing on the Mirrored Volume (Windows Server 2008)
When re-installing the OS to a hard disk drive which has been upgraded to Dynamic Disk, only the
simple dynamic volume is available for installation.
If you want to install the OS on a volume that is mirrored using [Disk Management], invalidate the
mirroring and reset to the basic disk before the installation, and validate the mirroring again after the
installation.
You can create, invalidate, or delete the mirror volume by using [Disk Management] in [Computer
Management].
