First off, you can make a file level backup of the directories in the following 2 situations:

1. your database is shutdown. Be sure to backup *all* directories where your datafiles are located.
2. use a hot backup script. There are lots of these available. Check www.orafaq.com, there are some there.

You may want to learn about RMAN oracle's backup and recovery manager. The following links will help:

These links require metalink access.
