Re: Online backup

The script will need to give the "alter tablespace tablespace_name begin backup;" for every tablespace before it's files are backed up. At the end of those files being backed up, the same command is given changin the word BEGIN to END.

As for writing to tape, just use the tar command. If space is an issue throw in the compress command.

Then, save up the money to get a real backup solution :-)
