14- 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 disk Status
Mirror console show mirroring status as follows.
Figure | Description | |
Volume |
| The volume role is Source. |
The volume role is Target. | ||
The volume status is Diskless. | ||
Status | The status is Mirroring. | |
The status is Resyncing. Displays the progress for resyncing. | ||
The status is Paused. | ||
Split brain is occurred. |
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 | Decription |
Connect | Connect communication path between two nodes for mirror disk. |
Disconnect | Disconnect communication path between two nodes for mirror disk. |
Forceful sync | The mirror status is changed to RESYNCING and full synchronization from source to target is initiated. |
Descriptions of properties setting
[Figure] Mirror Management Screen
Attribute name | Description |
Virtual device path | Shows the mounting point. |
Meta device path | Shows whether a meta device is internal or external. |
Resynchronization ratio | Set the resynchronization ratio. (Setting range: 0 - 640MB) |
Mirror network address | IP address of mirror disk between nodes in a cluster. |
Mirror IP address is able to be edited. But this can be done when mirror state is paused.
If mirror status is MIRRORING when you edit the mirror IP address, the status changed to PAUSE automatically.
Policy for recovering auto split brain
Node Priority | policy | Description |
Secondary-Secondary | Toss the last primary node | Start synchronization at the node that was primary before a split brain occurred. |
Toss the first primary node | Start synchronization at the node that was second primary before a split brain occurred. | |
Toss the one with small changes | Start synchronization at the node with greater changes when a split brain occurred. | |
Toss the one with no changes | If only one node has changes, start synchronization on it. If the both nodes have no changes, synchronize either one. If the both node have changes, disconnect communication. | |
Disconnect | Cut off a connection without auto recovery. | |
Primary-Secondary | Consensus | Apply the same recovery policy that is applicable when all the nodes are secondary. If auto recovery fails, disconnect communication. |
Toss secondary node | Make the secondary as a sacrifice node. | |
Disconnect | Cut off a connection without auto recovery. | |
Primary-Primary | Disconnect | Cut off a connection without auto recovery. |

Right click with your mouse button on the mirror set volume in mirror volume to see the descriptions of the mirror management commands that can be selected.
Menu | Descriptions |
Promote | The mirror disk role of the node is promoted as Primary. |
Demote | The mirror disk role of the node is demoted as Secondary. |
Pause | The mirror status will be changed to PUASE and replication will be paused. |
Resume | Resume MIRRORING the mirror disk which has been paused. Resynchronization will take place in advance, if there is data changed during paused. |
Connect | Connect communication path between primary site's source node and off-site DR node. |
Disconnect | Disconnect communication path between primary site's source node and off-site DR node. |
Forceful sync | The mirror status is changed to RESYNCING and full synchronization from source to target is initiated between primary site to off-site DR node. |
