Monitoring Storage
Mirroring Servers
After you specify servers in your environment, Storage Mirroring Console monitors the Storage
Mirroring connections on those servers. Storage Mirroring Console provides easy, at-a-glance
monitoring of the connections, including statistics and status information.
The intent of the Storage Mirroring Console is to monitor Storage Mirroring source servers. The
Storage Mirroring Console will collect target server information based on the source server that is
being monitored. You should not monitor servers that are not Storage Mirroring source servers, as
these servers will show up in an error state.
Adding servers
Before you can begin to monitor connections, you must first add the source servers to the Storage
Mirroring Console.
On the Add Servers page, you can add servers to the Storage Mirroring Console.
NOTE: You can also add servers by importing an .xml file that has been previously created in
Storage Mirroring. For more information, see Importing servers on page 7-3.
WARNING: You must not add servers running Storage Mirroring version 5.0 to this version of
the Storage Mirroring Console.
