SQL 2008 DB Mirroring set-up
Posted on 2011-03-04
Hello experts,
I have built and set-up 3 x servers - to perform the role of Principal, Mirror and Witness servers.
Principal and Mirror servers has SQL 2008 installed and configured, Witness has SQL 2008 R2 Express edition.
Step 1: Installed and configured SQL 2008 in Principal server and restored application database.
Now how to go about setting up DB mirroring and test the possible synchronous/asynchronous options. IS there any step by step documentation available?
Please advise.
Thanks and Regards
