835.0. "Booting from Mirror disk ?" by 42080::HARRINGTONM () Thu May 29 1997 04:18
I have a Alpha 4100 that is runing NT Clusters 1.1.
The customer has decided to use NT Mirroring on the system disk ( C:
NTFS Z: osloader ). This we have set up no problem. However, we now
need to check the "boot from the mirror disk" and I'm having problems
I have created a new boot option, changing the path options. We get the
blue screen, clusters info, then it crashes with a dump - If you need
the numbers I can get them today.
Have I done anything wrong ?? - TechNet says not !!
I do have a stand alone system, with a SWXCR in. I shall try it on
there to see if I have a similar problem.
Many Thanks

| 835.2 | Boot Floppy Disk | EVTAI1::clpwnt.evt.dec.com::QUENARD | Never UP - Never IN | Mon Jun 02 1997 05:38 | 7 |
| Have you try with a fault-tolerant boot floppy disk ?
see Windows NT "Concepts and Planning Guide," "Managing fault tolerance and UPS
Chapter" Page 164

| 835.3 | FYI - I didn't know you had to break the mirror | 42080::HARRINGTONM | | Tue Jun 03 1997 00:36 | 10 |
| FYI
I did not realise that you have to break a mirror set to be able to
boot from it - especially as I was only testing for a failure. All
systems boot form their mirror copy provided you break the mirror
first - I pulled t he disk out !
