I want to change which copy of my mirror is active. Can I just right click and select Switch Active Mirror?
I'm guessing I'll want to disconnect initiators beforehand?

Hi, you can change the active mirror on the fly - it will not distrupt any data transfer.
However, note that the point of connection is anchored to the first mirror, the switch will reroute the data to travel primarily to the second mirror.
