Re: USing RMAN to do hot backup of db on NT

I would suggest that you use rman with a recovery catalog. You can build one in a small database just for that purpose.

You do not have to issue and alter database.... command.

Sample scripts are in ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/demo/case1(2,3,4).

I use rman for all backup except cold backups done along with other stuff by our SA. If you would like anymore information contact me directly and I will be glad to help.
