Thanks to all who replied to me regarding Back-up. I think RMAN will be good
choice for Back.up.
Thanks and regards,

Santosh - You might consider locating an Oracle consultant with experience
in backup and recovery procedures to help this client. If the client is
paying you under the assumption that you are an Oracle backup and recovery
expert, you may be misleading them. Honesty builds long-term relationships.
Be sure the client has archive logging turned on. This increases the
options in a backup situation.
Oracle backup discussions tend to be complex because Oracle is used at
such a wide variety of sites, all of which have individual requirements.
Here is a discussion of some of the issues.

Short-term, consider implementing a cold backup strategy. This involves
shutting the database down and backing up all the data files.
Then talk to the client about what their goal are. If the database is
small and not used off-hours, cold backup may be adequate. If the database
is continually used, but the site has no plans to expand greatly, a hot
backup scheme may be satisfactory. Otherwise, consider Oracle's RMAN utility
which is included with Oracle.

Hello list,
I am implementing a software in Oracle 8.1.7.
The client wants to have the backup and recovery procedure. As of now, they
are using EXPORT utility.
Could any one of you tell me any other utility which the client will be able
to use for Backup of their data ?
Thanks and Regards,
Santosh Varma
