Verifying the data changes on the target
Now that you have modified some of the files, you want to be sure that the file
modifications were applied correctly.
Note: Because of the way the Windows Cache Manager handles memory, machines
that are doing minimal or light processing, as you are in this evaluation, may have
file operations that remain in the cache until additional operations flush them out.
This may make Storage Mirroring Recover files on the target appear as if they are
not synchronized. When the Windows Cache Manager releases the operations in
the cache on the source, the files will be updated on the target. To make sure this
does not impact your testing, flush the cache by copying a couple of files from
one directory to another and then deleting them.
1. Browse your source and target. Compare the directory structures and the total
number of files.
2. Look again at the four files you modified earlier. Verify manually that the changes
you made have been applied to the target copy of the file.
3. Right-click the connection on the right pane of the Replication Console and select
Verify. You will see two choices on the Start Verification dialog box.
l
Verify only—This option performs the verification process by comparing the
date, time and size of each file and generates a verification report identifying
the files that are not synchronized.
l
Remirror data to the target automatically—This option performs the
verification process by the comparison method specified, generates a
verification report, and then remirrors those files from the source to the target
that are not synchronized.
4. Select Verify only and click OK.
