Hi Everybody! Hope someone can help me with this one.

Well I have two Windos NT Servers. With two hard drives each.

The thing is that I mirrored both of them, but for some reason one of the partitions in each server has a "BROKEN" status partition. In one of the Server the primary partition is broken and the other server the secondary partition is broken. I try to do this mirroring a couple of times however, each time the result is the same.

PLEEEEEAAAAAASSSSEEEEE HEEELLLPPP!!!!

Thanks.

 
What have you tried? In Disk Administrator, can you highlight the first drive, then press CTRL and highlight the second, and then "Establish" the mirror again? I can't remember if you can right-click and choose establish or if you have to go into a menu for the option, just make sure both partitions are "selected" or highlighted.

If you can't get it to re-establish the mirror, then (using Disk Administrator), I'd delete the mirror's partition and re-create it, then quick format it and try again to highlight both and establish a mirror.

Have fun.
