What is Database Mirroring?

In Database mirroring, we can create and maintain the redundant copies of a database. Database mirroring increases the availability of an SQL Server database.

Also, the Database mirroring minimizes the downtime which reduces the data corruption or loss.

There are two copies of a single database in Database Mirroring. The principal server instance provides the database to clients and the mirror server instance acts as a standby that can take over if the principal server has any problem.

 

When Error 1474 occurs?

Firstly, let’s have a detailed look at the error. Usually, the error occurs while configuring the database mirroring in SQL Server.
