Here is the commands...
DEFine DBCopy--volume_name--copy_volume_name----------------->

>--+------------------------------------------------+----------><
   |                           .-Wait--=--No------. |
   '-Formatsize--=--megabytes--+------------------+-'
                               '-Wait--=--+-No--+-'
                                          '-Yes-'

Then delete the original ones when the sync process finishes....

Interesting, what does that mean, exactly?

I have the databases, create a mirror copy, and then do a delete dbv?


Thanks for your  help.
