I am trying to mirroring a database in sql server. I created a database and took a backup of it and restored on the another server. But after doing all operations and click on start mirroring, then it showing following error. I put “NO” to Witness server option
.
I followed mirroring steps in this link Here it says, create an user on both principal and mirror server with the same credentials in STEP 3. Is it necessary to create same user on both servers? or any alternate solution is there?
I also faced same problem. you need to check the following items once.
Goto services.msc and check the sql server is running under which account. Make sure that sql server and sql server agent services should run with same credentials.
in the mirror database server you should do the same step as step 1. Give the same credentials as in principal server. If that user is not present create a new one on the both servers with same credentials.
Now got principal server and in sql server add the new login under Security–>Login. Give the server roles as Sysadmin and public. Add the same user on the mirror server also.
Now do the mirror in the principal database. You did not get any error there.
