5.6.1 Creating a mirror drive
To create a mirror using physical drives, from the toolbar, select Tools -> Mirror
Drive Setup Wizard. You will see a dialog box, Mirror Drive List, that will be
blank. If there were mirror drives created, then it would display the names of the
drives. Click the Next>> button and the Mirror Drive Members Selection
window opens. The window on the left named Available Drive Pool contains a list
off all drives that are candidates to participate in a mirror drive.
Select a drive by highlighting it and click the Add>> button. The drive name will
be added to the Member window. An asterisk will appear on the left hand side of
the drive just selected in the Available Drive window, to denote that the drive has
been selected. A second or third drive can be added to create a 2-way, or 3-way
mirror, respectively. Each drive is added one at a time. To remove a drive from
the Member window, select the desired drive and click the Remove<< button.
An example of adding two drives to create a 2-way mirror is shown in
Figure 5-20.
