I agree with Tim. Start by learning RMAN. If you use RMAN, then the issues of OPS and raw disks go away. RMAN uses its own backup methods. You can learn RMAN by backing up to disk, then research whether you need an MML. RMAN is so superior for this type of backup that you should not consider creating your own backup using dd or whatever. Dennis Williams
