what happened when Mirror server failed in hight safety environment

  • Hi Everyone,

    Suppose we have a mirroring with witness server in hight safety(synchronous mode) environment. So my question is:

    1:-What happened if mirror server failed and witness & principle is running fine?

    As per my understanding mirroring will be disconnected.Please correct me. And if i am wrong,Please provide me the correct answer.

    Thanks in advance

    Regards

  • that is correct.

    as you have a principal and witness you still have a quorum so the principal can still service connections. However mirroring will be suspended. It will resume when the mirror is bought back up. Until that time the log of the principal will not be able to be truncated.
