As Far as backing up your db with Arcserve, if you are attempting to do this to a tape device while the db is open, your users will likely notice significant performance degredation. You may want to enable archiving to a hdd (other than the one(s) containing Oracle db files) and then later back up those archive files to tape). Hope this helps.
