Hot backups : Catching the last Archived redo log at the end of the backup cycle.

After one completes backing up their last tablespace, how can we be sure
that when copying the last redo log we do not catch ARCH when its in the
middle of archiving the last redo log?



alter tablespace begin backup;


! cp  etc.



alter tablespace end backup;


alter system switch logfile; --  arch starts archiving the latest redo log
that was forced by this command


! cp ...



-- are we going to be copying an incomplete archived redo log here?



TIA,



Rob.
