Starwind RAID1: replication mode, switching

Hi,

Some basics (i think) questions about RAID1 target,

1- What does mean "Replication" mode for a partner image when crating RAID1 target?
2- If the physical disk containing the ".mir" file broke down, the target is still available?
3- If a physical disk with the first image became unavailable, Is the switching to second image will automaticaly processed by initiator?

Thanks

Do not use this functionality as it's going to be deprecated in upcoming V8. Stick with a sync or async replication. Get V8 beta-2.
