Zusammenfassung:Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for after swapping from a first storage to a second storage, mirroring data from the second storage to the first storage for data in the first storage that experienced data errors. A swap operation redirects host Input/Output (I/O) requests to data from the first server to the second server in response to a health condition at the first server. A determination is made of data errors with respect to data in the first storage that experienced data errors. The second server is instructed to mirror data in the second storage to the first server including data for the data in the first storage that experienced the data errors to store in the first storage in response to determining that the first server is available for the data mirroring operations.
