  • Here the staments you need for mirrored Db's

    # Normal Failover (Both Partner are online) for Fallback, Maintenace or Testfailover.

    ALTER DATABASE %DBNAME% SET PARTNER FAILOVER

    ## Emergency Failover (Pricipal offline)

    ALTER DATABASE %DBNAME% SET PARTNER FORCE_SERVICE_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS

    ### Pause Mirroring

    ALTER DATABASE %DBNAME% SET PARTNER SUSPEND

    ### Resume Mirroring after failed Server is online again

    ALTER DATABASE %DBNAME% SET PARTNER RESUME

    ##Destroy Mirror Section

    i think there are no limitations beetwen this two editions in mirroring but in case of a failover you have other limitations like CPU etc.. So if your datacenter ist missioncritical you better have the same type of maschine etc.

  • R2 can be the mirror, but when/if it fails over to the R2 version then it will upgrade the database therefore failing back will not be an option to 2008.
