Hi there,

Since the oracle is a database and will be growing time after time, it's very wise if you backup the Oracle seperately.

And I don't think Ignite/UX have capability to backup the open file OR can be done online.

You can goto this url below and check the FAQ of Ignite/UX software :

Hope this can help you.

Best Regards,
AW

Nokia,

You should NOT use ignite for other than OS filesystems. Fbackup - omniback - legato are disigned for data backup and restore.

Hope this helps,
Robert-Jan.

hi
you can backup Oracle with ignite but not online.
you have to stop oracle and backup all volume groups you have using:
# make_recovery -Av -x inc_entire=vg00 -x inc_entire=vg01 -x inc_entire=vg02

Hi,

you can create a parameter file to specify the files:

inc_entire /dev/vg00
include /opt/oracle
...
exclude /SAVE
.

First: ONLINE-Backup with RMAN or SQL-scripts (htp://www.orafaq.com) / copy datafiles offline before run tape_recovery.

IGNITE is a tool and one of its main utilization is making a disaster recovery tape for the system.

It completely takes the present system configuration of the system so that it can be helpful to bring up the system to its current state incase of a disaster.

you cannot take teh online backup of the Oracle database.

It is best to use other backup commands/software to take backup of the applications.
