Hi Niall

Thanks for responding..

I asked about this question in other forums too..

And one of them suggested that applying incremental
backups to image copies from 10.2 onwards

And i think that is a more viable answer provided the
client is  willing to load probably one days worth of
data into that remote host and start running his ETL
processes from there..

What do you guys think on this approach.

regards
Hrishy
