Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> DB Backup Question
Hi all,
We are running into tape capacity problems and unix admin came to me asking
if we could skip backing up some drives. Right now we are doing hot backups
on all production databases to disk and then the whole server get backed up
to tape. Since the backups for open database files are not valid, the unix
admin asked if we could only backup the drives that has the backup dumps.
One side of me says this can be done but another nagging side of me is not
sure about this. So I am posting this to the list and see what other folks
think of this one.
Thanks
Dennis Meng
