Open SQL Server Configuration Manager -> SQL Server Services-> Right click

And then press next.
7. The first wizard will ask if you want a Witness. If you want the manual failover or
a high-performance mirroring, the Witness is not necessary. If you want a high
availability mirroring with automatic failover, select the yes option.

In this config, we will not use a witness and then press next
8. In the next option, you will select the ports used. We also have an option to
Encrypt the data send from one Server to Another. The Principal Server and the
Mirroring Server will be synchronizing data constantly. The Endpoint name will
be created here.

9. Connect Mirror Server Instance


Press connect and specify the connection properties ( using user sql server
authentication to connect to mirror server instance)
Also, select the listener port and the Endpoint name.
10. Config service account

Soulution:
Run T-SQL set partner for database on mirror server
ALTER DATABASE [AQ_CMS]
SET PARTNER = 'TCP://WIN-P94HS802CCU:5022'

Run T-SQL set partner for database on principal server


ALTER DATABASE [AQ_CMS]
SET PARTNER = 'TCP://WIN-4MGGH5TLQ90:5022'
