How can i create a hot backup of my production database without RMAN only using OS copy.
I can put the entire database in backup mode and do an OS copy but how to make a standby control file.Its mentioned that making backup of controlfile the database should be in mount state and not open.
Will the below control files be of any use when the database is open

alter database backup controlfile to '/a/control.ctl';
alter database create standby controlfile as '/a/controlsby.ctl';
