It all depends upon what happened to the mirrored drive.  

Scenario #1:
Drive Failure:  If the mirrored drived failed, I would would scheduled a down time on the server.  First 
unmirror the two drives, and removed the failed drive as a netware volume.  Then after shutting down the 
server, remove the failed drive and replace it with another of similar size.  Bring up the server and load 
install.  Select the volume and then create a netware volume on this drive.  Once a volume has been created you 
may then strap the drive to the mirror.  After a several minutes of resynch. the mirror you will have a good 
mirror.


Scenario #2
The drive should automatically remirror when they become our of synch.
