I currently have a problem and I'm not sure if it's even possible to do what I need done. Hopefully someone can either point me in the necessary direction OR confirm that I am not able to do this.

Scenario:
Master Server has Linked Servers A & B.
From the master server I run a Query on one of the Views that is on Link Server A... (Data results)
I want to then automatically send these results to Link Server B.

Another option I thought of is:
From the master server I run a Query on one of the Views that is on Link Server A... (Data results)
I want to then automatically send these results to Master Server then send them to Link Server B.


Are either of these options possible?
Option 1: Minimizes replication & is more direct process.
Option 2: Creates replication, but would then create larger workloads on the servers over time when the results get larger.

Currently Setting up Link Server B to directly link to Link Server A is not an option.

"send these results to Link Server B"

What do you mean by this? Insert them into a table on Linked Server B??

If Linked Server A can see Master, and Master can see Linked Server B then surely it must be possible to allow Linked Server A to directly see Linked Server B? Doing it in two steps not only adds "replication"/duplication of data, but will make the process much more fragile as well.

Yes inserting the data into a table on Link Server B.
