Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> backup question
Hi! This might be newbie question so please bear with me here.
I have database(24*7) running in archivelog mode. I take hot backup(data,
archivelog and controlfile) every night.
I want to copy backup files to some other machine once in a while so that in
case if the first machine totally
goes down and I have to rebuild the db from scratch. So my question is how
many archive log files(at least) do I
need to copy in addition to last hot backup files so that I will be able to
open the database later on. I am not worried
about some of data I may lose, but rather concerns about the minimum archive
log files(if any) that are required after hot backup
in order to open the db. Cold backup is not my option. Thanks in advance.
