Kathy, Believe me, its worth it. Atleast for the environment where I am in with around 94 instances ( 40 + of them ERP instances), with a huge number of customisations in each of the instance ..this tool can be used extensively for Deployments. I myself have automated a variety of deployments through this tool. We use the tool to fetch the custom code from PVCS( a version controlled code repository) and deploy it to the target instance. It can ftp your code between servers, execute unix commands, execute sqls connecting to a database.As you say the tool also has inbuilt functionalities to migrate AOL components from one instance to another. If you really need more detailed information, you can contact me directly simplesubi@xxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:simplesubi@xxxxxxxxxxx> . I ll be glad to share. Thanks Subbu ________________________________ From: ora-apps-dba-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ora-apps-dba-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of kathy duret Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2008 12:28 PM To: ora-apps-dba@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Kintana - Mercury ITG - HP ITG Does anyone use this product? What does it buy you over and above what FND_LOAD can do. I am trying to find out what would justify the price tag on this software.
