Is it possible to configure mirror of the DB between two VMs using APIs like that one? I assume, based on the description, it can be done but on the same instance but I'm not sure how to do that for two separate VMs. I know how to use IRIS portal and set up Mirrored Members connections but now trying to automate that process.

Thanks!

Hi @Adam Raszkiewicz ! You can find here an example of a Mirroring using API developed by @Mario Sanchez Macias

Hi,
as always you can, but it's quite complex.

in order you should:

create the db on server 1
add it to the mirror
backup the db on server1
restore the db on server2
bring it online
do the catchup on server2

Everything is scriptable, but it can be complex because it involves 2 servers

I usually dismount and copy for 3, 4.
