Hi Mark,

That's interesting. Our 9i enviroment is a "turn-key" system and the cold backup solution was implemented by the supplier after months of them not being able to get a hot backup with Veritas working. From my limited knowledge of Oracle it does seem that putting the database back together on a different server (with different architecture) would not be straightforward.

I'll investiagte RMAN.

Cheers

Dave.
