Actually I do have the time for the cold backup on sundays, so I rather stay with it while I can... Kimberly, I got your point. :)

Sorry. However, now she knows its ok not to shut it down if she was just doing it cause she though she should:-) -----Original Message----- Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2001 11:40 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Kimberly, I think we agree with each other. The only reason I suggested that she stay with the cold backup on the weekend was because she was already doing that. If we were devising a brand new backup strategy, and the requirement was that there was no down-time available for a cold backup, then I think we would all stay with hot backups (I prefer Rman). But since she has the time for a cold backup on the weekend, I suggested she stay with it for a "comfort zone".

I cannot think of a single reason to get a cold backup over a hot backup. I can think of reasons for cold backups but if I was doing hot backups already I would not shutdown my database just to get a cold. There is a myth out there that hot backups are not as reliable as cold backups and its false. Your really not saving anything time wise if there is a crash (unless of course all your disks crash as you are bring up the database). Weekly cold backups are a good plan. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Kimberly Smith INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
