According to Microsoft, for setting up SQL Server 2005 Mirroring they recommend "The partner servers should run on comparable operating systems that can handle identical workloads". They don't go into specifics, but would the prinicipal server (running on Windows SE 2008, 64bit) and the Mirror (Windows Server 2003, SE 32bit) be ok to setup mirroring? The DBs and Logs for both parties will be located on LUNS that have enough disk space. Both servers will have instances of SQL Server 2005 Standar Edition. Both servers will be able to handle the same workloads...I'm just not 100% sure if there will be an issues with the different operating systems. Thanks

I don't think there will be any issues with that configuration - since the OS's are comparable. All database mirroring is concerned about is the version of SQL Server being the same.
