RE: one question on backup and restore

Hi Zhu Chao,

Yes, I think Jin is using shared external storage, otherwise if his server A down how he going to copy all his files from server A to server B.
if this is the case what Jin may do is propose an clustering software.

Otherwise, he must backup his database into media.

Hi,

    It can be done via cluster software like VCS (Veritas Cluster Server) or Sun Cluster. But one mandetory requrement: you must place your oracle database(control,redo,data etc) on the shared storage, that is , server A and Server B can access the same disk array.

    If you really do not have shared storage, consider using oracle data guard.
