Scenario:

Start-up(read every $ counts).

Task: Set-up database mirroring(Asynchronous).

Variables:

  • 1 Copy of SQL 2008 STANDARD OEM,
  • 1 Copy of SQL 2008 R2 STANDARD
  • 2 Dedicated SQL boxes(one is much zippier than the other one, that's why Asynchronous mirroring)

Questions: What is the cheapest way to set-up mirroring?

Options:

  • Mirroring 2008 to 2008 r2 wont work, right ?
  • 2 Copies of SQL 2008 R2 STANDARD seems to be won't work as well.
  • will SQL 2008 R2 STANDARD(Principal) and SQL 2008 R2 Enterprise(Mirror) work ?
