Hi,

Support there is a huge data (say 90GB)in production environment and by turning the activity monitor and profiler on in production server we are able to capture the trace/script.
What would be the best way to run this trace/script to replicate the issue in local environment as taking DB backup of production data and restoring locally is not allowed.
How to replicate the issue from production environment locally when there is a huge data involved as stated in the above stated scenario?

I don't think it will be easy task. The best alternative will be take a production data and scramble so that the sensitive information is not revealed. Just one of the possible ways of doing it http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=100066.
