I'm taking wagers on if this desperate measure will work..........sorry if it is unclear.
Snap Appliance tech support told me that I could not repair my broken mirror since my 80GB primary drive "knew" that it was part of a mirrored set. Installing a new blank replacement drive with the OS on it would not allow it to rebuild because it would be seen as a single drive [ID 10000 or 1000010] and not part of a mirrored set.
Sooooooooooo... desperation creates some fuzzy logic.
I've cloned my broken 80 GB Primary Snap Mirror drive to a larger 200GB drive with ghost.
I then used two separate new 200GB drives and created a mirror with no data on the Snap Server.
Now I have a clean 187GB primary mirror and a backup mirror each ID'd as 50000.
with no data on it, plus a 76,319 Primary mirror drive clone on a 200 GB drive [this came from the 80GB remaining Snap drive]. Don't know what will happen with the extra unused space...
Next planned step is to insert the remaining drive in position One. [Physical position does matter according to Snap Tech Support] and see if the system is faked out to rebuilding the mirror.........
Thoughts and input are appreciated...
