Hi, group. For each database in a subset of my project's databases, I would 
like to have a corresponding database that (almost) clones the structure of 
the original database. The mirror databases will be used to archive records 
that have been deleted from the original databases.

For example, if I have db1 as the original database, with fields *id 
*(automatically 
generated)*, field1, field2, and field3*, db1_archive will have fields *id 
*(automatically 
generated)*, original_id *(which will store the contents of db1's id field)*, 
field1, field2, and field3.*

The structure of an archive database should be updated automatically 
whenever the structure of the original database is modified. Can anyone 
recommend a good way to go about doing this? 

Also, is there a quick one/two-liner to transfer db (original) records to 
db (archive) upon deletion from db (original), taking into account the 
discrepancies in the *id *fields? Thanks.
