Hello,

I'm new to oracle dba responsibilities and in need of some direction.
I need to implement a process and I'm not sure which technologies
and/or processes I should investigate.

Our application produces a set of reporting views in the production
database (solaris, oracle 9.2).  My managers and others are anxious to
run reports on the data; I've created a report user and throttled
resources for this user, but my goal is to restrict all
non-application access to the production database.  I would like to
automate the copy the reporting data to a dedicated report database on
another host, preferably daily.

Can you give me some direction on the technologies/processes to copy
these tables to another database I might investigate?  We cannot
shutdown the production database daily.  We do use rman to disk, but
do not have rman set up with a media manager yet.  One of my books
mentions "transportable tablespaces"--should I read up on that? 
Should I do some homework on export/import? One of the reporting views
could contain millions of rows, but the other dozen or so tables are
comparatively small (thousands of rows).

Thank you for any guidance!
