Appendix H. Mirror Management Console
The mirror management console is provided only for the individual mirror resources managed by MCCS.
The mirror management console operates independently from the engine logic of MCCS, so during operation, it can collide with MCCS.
The mirror management console informs users of the mirror volume status and the capacity of the mirror in use. You can change the bandwidth and the mirror network addresses in it.

Mirror management command descriptions
Right click with your mouse button on the mirror set volume to see the descriptions of the mirror management commands that can be selected.
| Menu | Description |
Source | Pause | The mirror status will be changed to PAUSE and replication will be paused. |
Resync | The mirror status will be changed to RESYNCING and the full synchronization will be initiated between node. | |
Resume | Resume MIRRORING the mirror disk which was paused. Resynchronization will take place in advance, if there is data change during paused. | |
Target | Lock | The volume is locked to prevent access the volume from the node. |
Unlock | Unlock the target volume to access read only purpose. Mirror status should be paused in advance. |
When you unlock the target volume, you can access the volume read only purpose. It can cause a negative effect to the mirror.
Even if you unlock it, you cannot write to the disk. If you want to "write" to the disk, you must manually change the readOnly attributes in the registry. But it does not highly recommended to secure data integrity.
