I'm not sure if I'm bragging or complaining, but I've never setup or supported online backups for Oracle. I'm being directed to implement online backups for a V7.3.4.5 instance. A search of OTN reveals that Oracle no longer seems to have any V7 documents available anymore. :-(

Since this DB is stuck at V7.3.4.5 for at least 6 more months, I need to get online backups operational without using RMAN. If somebody who has *nix shell script(s) or Perl code that implements online backups, I'd appreciate if you would send a copy my way. I'm just looking for something to get me started.

TIA & HAND!
