When you reconnect/remirror the split drive do you have to re-sync the
complete volume or only the data that was updated since the split was
executed.

Subject: RE: [U2] Backup, dbpause & 24/7 operation

If you are truly 24x7 then the best way in my opinion would be to mirror
- or better yet - triple mirror the disks.

Then, using dbpause to pause, split one of the mirrors off, dbresume and
then mount the split disk for backup separately.

The triple mirror will then mean you still have two sets of disks
operating and providing performance/redundancy whilst being able to
backup using the third set with your favourite tool.
