Sharing of cross db triggers across 2 servers.

  • We currently have triggers that run across databases. we'r in process of getting another server. What to find out the posibilities of moving some databases to the new server. But the issue is we have triggers that run across databases. i.e if a record is updated in db A on table A, the trigger fires to update db B table A. Is this posibble across servers/ has anyone used triggers across servers. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • This should be possible using linked servers. The downside however is that if the second server is unreachable, the whole transaction will fail.

    Maybe someone knows of a workaround?

  • This might be a point at which to use MSMQ to forward the results to the other server in a structured guaranteed manner.
