Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Repost: Offline vs Online
I appreciate the ongoing discussion regarding the logs, but does anybody have
any comments
regarding the questions I previously asked? Here they are again:
If you create a new database and do a full online backup (this also includes
future regular full online backups) is it ever necessary to do a full offline
backup(ie shutdown, backup, startup)? I have heard conflicting answers,
regarding
this and am looking for some clarification. Don't 24x7 applications always
have to
execute offline backups? Are offline backups done for peace of mind, and if
yes why? What
issues are introduced if only offline backups are issued. In addition, we are
using BMCs Sql BackTrack product and I am not sure if it is a requirement of
the tool that an offline backup be periodically performed. If you know that as
well, please share. Thanks
