Re: AIX volume group backup?
As strange as it sounds, it might be that your hosting service does not understand that the Oracle backups obtained in this way are useless. On the other hand, this may be their way of getting copies of static files because they have tapes to burn.

Re: AIX volume group backup?
It must be something about system managers, it makes them feel useful to do this. However, unless your databases are down when they are done, these backups will be useless for recovery, You need to have online or cold backups of your databases when you are sure the databases are in the proper state.
