3.20 Deactivate Fault Tolerance

If you are running OS/2 LAN Server Fault Tolerance, unmirror and deactivate all those currently mirrored drives on which services will be installed.

In our test environment, we used OS/2 Warp Server's OS/2 base Syslevel 3005 with FixPak 36 and OS/2 Warp Server's LAN Server syslevel 8200 with FixPak 8506.

As you can see in Figure 20, the mirrored Partition G is recognized with FSTYPE 87.
