OE=8F-=BC: shutdown for backup : pro's and con's
I would like to be convinced one way or the other on the following =
issue :=20
What is the best way to take a database down for a cold backup ?
=20
SHUTDOWN ABORT
STARTUP RESTRICT
SHUTDOWN NORMAL
<BACKUP>
or
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
<BACKUP>
I have seen both widely used.
I have always stayed away from the ABORT option because I am uneasy =
about
taking any database down this way (hard).
I am looking for a dialog on the pro's and con's of each approach.
ie: Any horror stories about taking down with the ABORT option ?
