Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Rman and database shutdowns
Ron,
I'm not sure I understand your question. You are shutting down your database for an OS level backup? The incremental backup you say is not working, is this an RMAN incremental backup or an OS level backup?
As for the shutdown of Oracle, if RMAN is in the middle of a backup at that time, the shutdown of the database will kill the Oracle backup.
HTH, RF

List,
OS OpenVms 7.3-1
Oracle 8.1.7 rel 3
Archivelog mode.
We are trying to work through backup issues here and I have a
question.
The system nightly backup procedures backup up the disks used by Oracle
(software and data). A full backup works but an incremental does not
backup any files. Inorder to get the changed files to be backed up as an
incremental the sysadmin shutdown the database to flag the files as
changed.
Questions:
How will the shutdown effect the RMAN backup if it does not know that
it was shutdown for a cold backup?
Are there any possible problems doing a restore from the cold backup
and then using the RMAN backup/restore?
I am still trying to figure out the OpenVms OS. Perserverience
required...!
Ron
