Minus Human Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Disk 1 also needs to be a Dynamic Volume.Minus Human Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

learningprocess Posted May 25, 2005 Author Share Posted May 25, 2005 Ok I have figure out what I did wrong.I only need to convert Disk1 to dynamic disk and need not create any logical drive for Disk1.Now I have done the mirroring part.I have tried to get some help from the windows help file and couldn't find any topic related to recovery from mirrored disk (Disk1 in this case). I would like to crash the file in Disk0 and try to recover it from Disk1, but before I do that I really do hope you guys can give me some guideline on how to do recovery from the mirrored disk.Thanks again!
