Description
If you must run CHKDSK on a volume that is being replicated by SIOS DataKeeper, it is recommended that you PAUSE the mirror before initiating the CHKDSK. After running CHKDSK, CONTINUE the mirror. A partial resync occurs (updating those writes generated by the CHKDSK) and replication will continue.
Note: The bitmap file (for non-shared volumes) is located on the C drive which is defined by BitmapBaseDir as the default location. Running CHKDSK on the C drive of the Source system will cause an error due to the active bitmap file. Therefore, a switchover must be performed so that this Source becomes Target and the bitmap file becomes inactive. The CHKDSK can then be executed on this system as the new target (original source).
