i want to configure mirror like this :
Principal : TCP://[192.168.0.30]:5022
Mirror : TCP://[192.168.0.31]:5022
but i get an error : TCP://[192.168.0.30]:5022 CANNOT BE REACHED
my Service is running under Administrator (should i change it to network service?)
any idea?

Thanks
peleg

Don't put brackets around the IP address. You should also only use the server names to set the partners. IP address may work but it's not recommended by Microsoft.

Your SQL service account should also run under a domain account, and that account should never be a domain admin or have elevated privileges.

but if i put the server name, it's on another ip that i want to use.
the servers are not in a domian, and the service run under the server local administrator

Is this strictly for testing purposes? It may work under the network service account, but I've never tried it and I know MS doesn't recommend it. Can't vouch for it after that.
