Hello,

one of our customers wants to have 'continu' backup, that is: when one backup has completed, the next one should immediately be started. The reason for this is that when a complete recovery from tape has to be done, the data loss should be minimal.
Are there alternatives to achieve this? (Not too expensive ofcourse, an identical mirror server is not an option). What are the pro's and con's of this method (loss of performance, certain risks?). Oracle 8.0.6, WinNT Server 4 SP5.

Regards,
