Hi,  

Can anyone think of a reason(s) why one WOULD want to backup a database from a box other than the database box itself? Are there any advantages to this kind of configuration?  

For example:  

Box-A (production db server)
Box-B (rman db server)  

A cron job runs on Box-B which backups up the database from Box-A.    

Thanks in advance!
