Here is my issue
Principal Server:-ServerA
Mirror Server:-ServerB
ClientServer:-ServerC
Linked server is configured to connect a Database named DB1 with server and failover partner configured as
ServerA and Server B respectively.
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = N'LinkedServer',@srvproduct=N'', @provider=N'SQLNCLI10', @provstr=N'Server=ServerA;FailoverPartner=ServerB;Network=dbmssocn', @catalog=N'DB1'
Linked server connection fails and not recognizing the mirror server ( after failover)
though failoverpartner param set.
After Recycling Client SQLServer,linked server is able to connect the mirror server.
Is this related to provider cache(SQLNCLI10)?
