Can we change table structure in Mirroring

Can we change table structure in Mirroring. Like adding or deleting columns and tables and how can we do it. Thank you very much.Yes, you can change table structure in Database Mirroring. Changing the structure in the primary database is reflected over the mirror database. Think of database mirroring as "first class" log shipping with automatic failover. Initially, I thought only the data is mirrored since the mirror database is on read-only mode. But testing showed that DDL changes also get "mirrored."|||

Database Mirroring was initially called "Real Time Log Shipping." It is basically taking the log stream and "restoring" it on the mirror server in real time.

So, yes, you can change the table structure in database mirroring.

Thanks,

Mark
