Thanks for the answer. The machine hangs and I can not login , I have to turn the power off. No, I have a lot of disk space. The file has 2GB. The filesystem is ext2. Yes, I am crossing filesystems./ora_siopsix is one filesystem e /staging is another.
ALTER TABLESPACE "SIOPSIX" BEGIN BACKUP; !cp "/ora_siopsix/siopsixdtma.ora" /staging !cp "/ora_siopsix/siopsix4dtma.ora" /staging !cp "/ora_siopsix/siopsix3dtma.ora" /staging !cp "/ora_siopsix/siopsix2dtma.ora" /staging !cp "/ora_siopsix/siopsix1dtma.ora" /staging ALTER TABLESPACE "SIOPSIX" END BACKUP; The copy does not involve network. I can not login to the machine and use top. I can not login to use strace.

Do you have suggestion ? Well, how does it hang? Are you out of disk space? How big is the file? To what type of disk/filesystem are you writing? Are you crossing filesystems? Is this local or does it involve the network? What does something simple like top say when the cp is running and then when the cp hangs? Are you hitting a filesystem size limit? Have you tried strace to see what it says when cp gets stuck? % Thank you very much Sure thing! % % Jenner Gigante Borges % DBA % Tel: +55-11-5503-4215 % e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] HTH & HAND & Happy Holidays :-D -- David T-G * There is too much animal courage in (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * society and not sufficient moral courage.
