Verifying the changes on the target server
Now that you have modified some of the files, you want to be sure that the file modifications were applied correctly.
1. Compare the directories on your source and target. Compare the directory structures and the total number of files.
Look again at the four files from the previous section. Verify manually that the changes you made previously have been
applied to the target copy.
2. From your client machine, right-click the connection on the right pane of the Management Console and select Verify.
You will see two choices on the Start Verification dialog box.
 Verify Only—This option performs the verification process by comparing the date, time and size of each file and
generates a verification report identifying the files that are not synchronized.
 Remirror Files to the Target automatically—This options performs the verification process by the comparison
method specified, generates a verification report, and then remirrors those files from the source to the target that
are not synchronized. For complete details on the remirror comparison options, see the Storage Mirroring User’s
Guide.
3. Select Verify Only and click OK.
Just like when you were monitoring the mirror earlier, you can now monitor the verification process. Notice that the
Mirror Status column changes to Verifying while the verification process occurs. When the verification is complete,
Storage Mirroring will have created a log file for you to review.
