Failed Redundancy on mirrired drives

The good disk is the one that hasn't got the warning sign.

First, try to reactivate the problem disk. If this doesn't work, create a
boot diskette, replace the failed disk (then the failed disk will be
"missing" ), and then proceed as this MS Knowledge Base article instructs:
