Understanding mirror disk resources<br />

Access control of a data partition<br />

The data partition to be mirrored by a mirror disk resource can be accessed only from the active<br />

server where a mirror disk resource is activated.<br />

� <strong>ExpressCluster</strong> is responsible <strong>for</strong> the access control of the file system. Application’s<br />

accessibility to a data partition is the same as switching partition (disk resources) that uses<br />

shared disks.<br />

� Mirror partition switching is done <strong>for</strong> each failover group according to the failover policy.<br />

� By storing data required <strong>for</strong> applications on data partitions, the data can be automatically used<br />

after failing over or moving failover group.<br />
