So, it sounds like you are sharing physical san disks between 2 or more database servers. It is a possibility that there is contention on the drives there but in...

SQL Server is telling you that there is a problem somewhere in the I/O stack. Start with the I/O DMV's and also watch the server physical disks using windows perfmon.

What is your specific error? Is it a setup related issue, or are you having problems keeping the databases syncronized ? Need more info, please.

We share SAN drives (aggregate) for log and data. So, server1, server2 and server3 all have their data LUN's pointing to the same physical spindles. Same for log, where we...

Thanks for the insight, Jeff. That further reinforces my preference for the native tools. I can deploy my backup/maintenance jobs in about 2 minutes. Hope all works out ok...

You must first setup the endpoints, then assign correct security on them. Sounds like you have network connectivity issues or something is not configured right. Please see the troubleshooting slides...

Hi,

To query the system monitor counters directly (which is what the stored procedures do) try this:

SELECT * FROM sys.dm_os_performance_counters

WHERE OBJECT_NAME = 'SQLServer:Database Mirroring'

Thanks, Craig

I would also suggest you verify both versions of SQL are the same. Setting up mirroring using T-SQL doesn't tell you the error if you try this. You have to...
