4.5.2 Third-party verification
In this section, you will be using the Windows comp command to verify that the changes were
applied correctly.
1. Using the command below, you can compare the files on the source and target servers.
comp s:\*.* t:\*.*
2. Compare the results of the comp command (using the guildelines below) with the visual
and HP OpenView Storage Mirroring verification methods.
Again, you will see that all of the files are reported as the same.

Can't find/open file: filename The file does not exist on the target
