Hi All,

Greetings from Richards.

I have two named instance in my SQl server 2008, where i tried to mirror a database from the default instance to named instance on the same sql server , am getting the below error

"You must connect to this server instance using a login or account with the necessary permissions to save the security configuration before continuing this wizard."

is it possible to mirror a database from one instance to other instance on the same sqlserver?

what resolution for the above error and?

Please explain it in details.
Am very new to SQL server

yes it is but you have to use a different ports for principal, mirror and witness instances.

From the error, to me it sounds like you don't have sysadmin on the instances.
