Do they shut down the Oracle instances before they do the backups? I had
an SA once who wouldn't and it consistently produced corrupt control files.
Had to do a recovery every Monday morning. I finally educated him.

Please
respond to
ORACLE-L
Hi all,
I got the following from our Unix admin. Looks like
control files for some database on many boxes got
changed when being backed up on tape. (I suppose the
backup on tape happened during mid-night) Does
anybody know what the reason is, and why this only
happened to control files? Thank you. -- Janet
