: If you backup the entire disk that contains Oracle and all tablespaces
: without shutting down the database will it restore successfully? That
: is if you restore the entire disk with the backup did Oracle lose
: anything? Or should the database be shutdown and restarted?
: Any information on backup methods in general would also be helpful?
: Also should this system be converted to Oracle7? Would we see a performance
: gain?
: dave skiba
Performing a full backup while the database is still running will leave the
data files, redo log files, and control files in an inconsistent state.
Full backups should only be made after the database was shutdown
using normal priority.
