Notes
• To perform this procedure on a local computer, you must be a member of the Backup Operators
group or
• Administrators group on the local computer, or you must have been delegated the appropriate
authority. To perform this procedure remotely, you must be a member of the Backup Operators
group or Administrators group on the remote computer. If the computer is joined to a domain,
members of the Domain Admins group might be able to perform this procedure. As a security best
practice, consider using Run as to perform this procedure.
• To open Server Manager, click Start, click Administrative Tools, and then click Server Manager.
• You need two dynamic disks to create a mirrored volume.
• You can mirror an existing simple volume.
• Mirrored volumes are fault tolerant and use RAID-1, which provides redundancy by creating two
identical copies of a volume.
• Mirrored volumes cannot be extended.
• Both copies (mirrors) of the mirrored volume share the same drive letter.
