I need some information about backing up Oracle databases. I want to perform a file level backup of an oracle database whilst the database is running. Whilst this backup is being performed there will be no updates. Is there anyway of locking the database so no updates can be performed but reads are still allowed. If there is is this a safe way of performing the backup.
