Abstract

Disclosed is a system, method and circuit for mirroring data on a data server. According to some embodiments of the present invention, a primary mirroring module associated with a primary server may be adapted to establish data mirroring connections between the primary server and both a primary slave mirroring module functionally associated with a primary mirror server and with a secondary slave mirroring module functionally associated with a secondary mirror server. When sensing that a mirroring connection with the primary server has been terminated, the primary slave mirroring module may establish a mirroring connection with the second slave mirroring module and may reconcile data between the primary and secondary mirror servers.
