i have issue with database mirroring

  • Hi..

    everybody, i am doing the database mirroring.

    after disabling the mirroring,my both

    primary server instance and mirror database are in recovery state.

    how is that possible??

    so if anybody know, what to do..so help me..

    thanks in advance..

  • can you provide a bit of input.

    - can you find any info in your sqlserver errorlog file(s) ?

    - how did you set up your mirroring (ddl please)

    - what kind of mirroring did you set up (witness or not, ..)

    - what did you do to disable the mirroring ? (ddl please)

    - you should be able to bring these database to an online state.

    If there are potential issues with network load or some other reason that may be causing

    a delay in communicating with all three servers one solution is to change

    the PARTNER TIMEOUT.

    By default this value is set to 10 seconds, so if a "ping" is not received

    in this 10 second period a failover may occur.

    To make this change to a longer value, such as 20 seconds,

    the following command would be issued on the Principal server for the database

    that is mirrored.

    ALTER DATABASE dbName SET PARTNER TIMEOUT 20

    Be careful on the value that use for this option.

    If this value is set to high and a failure really does occur, the automatic failover

    will take longer based on the value you set.

    In addition, the lowest this value can be set to is 5 seconds based

    on information found in SQL Server Books Online.
