For cold backup, oracle does not recommend backup the online redo log. And if you restore the whole cold backup, why need the online redo log? I am sure people doing cold backup will do shutdown normal/immediate, not shutdown abort.So there is no need to backup the online redo log at all! Backup the online redo log also take the risk of damage the current online redo log when you want to do full recovery. So, never backup the online redo log when doing cold backup. ÖÂ
