I have a production database (PROD) and an Archive database (ARCH). There is a sql job executed every weekend to delete a portion of historical data from PROD and Insert them into ARCH. Now, the users want to setup a Reporting environment (REPORT) which should have data from both PROD + ARCH.
I did setup the reporting environment using replication but any change in schema breaks the replication process.
Note: The schema between PROD and ARCH are same. The Identity column values between PROD & ARCH are not duplicated. Environment: SQL Server 2008.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
