    You can't have a transaction across multiple servers when the servers can't talk to each other. You could maybe make this work by having transactions on each database and controlling them from a third process but that sounds like a recipe for disaster to me.

  • You can do it with a powershell script. Are you not wanting to link the servers for a specific reason? Like security vulnerabilities?

  • try SQL server's feature --- Central management . you can register all the server and perform transaction without logging to that server

    basic condition is that your SQL server needed to talk with each other ( in same domain - or accessible from the server on which you are creating the central management server group.

    other option is

    make batch file

    txt file with all server name

    >sql file with sql script you need to perform

    and output file to store the output

    and write the script to excute the script to run against all the server in TXT file

    Without the use of linked servers, you would need to use some sort of application or applet.

    If you wrote a powershell script - that could suit the "applet". Creating an ssis package could also server as an applet (imho).

    But basically, you need some means of notifying back to one server or the other that something was wrong so a "watcher" mechanism needs to be in place.

    To be honest, that's a bit like throwing spaghetti at the wall. My recommendation is to (of course) make sure that the data that you're going to include in the transaction is totally validated as correct and then pass it to a staging table (or tables) on the remote instance. Then have a stored procedure on the remote instance that does it's own transaction and call that stored procedure. That way, you don't have cross server transactions. If the remote proc fails, it can easily do a rollback on the remote server. Either way, the remote proc can send back a status as to whether it was successful or not without you having to go through the pains of or maintain a distributed transaction.

    OpenQuery uses linked servers to query across servers.
