RE: automate backup and export
John What is your intention? If you have created a test Oracle database on your Linux system just to learn, then just shut the database down and back up all files. If you have some important data in this database that changes frequently, then you need to learn about Oracle backup & recovery. More than a simple script, you need to understand your backup and recovery requirements as well as your scripts so you can ensure the requirements are being met. And you need to test your backup because a crash is no time to find out your method was flawed. All of this is much broader than we can cover in a few short emails or even a web site. Oracle Education teaches a nice week-long course on this. I found the book Oracle Backup & Recovery 101 by Smith and Haisley to be an excellent tutorial for the various types of Oracle backup methods. They take you step-by-step through tutorials on the different methods. Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc.

Re: automate backup and export
In addition to that, you don't need any expensive software. The original poster said that his platform is SuSE. Well, I'm on RH-9, which is almost the same. Almost. When I want to back up a database, I write 700M backup pieces to the filesystem that I have for this purpose and use xdroast to write it down to CDs. In connection to this, I have a question: is anybody using DVD writer on Linux? DVD writers themselves have several standards and I'm not sure which one should I buy. I'm starting to pay atention but I'm not quite sure what would be the right choice.

Re: automate backup and export
John, Oracle publishes reference material available on OTN. You can sign up for an account on http://otn.oracle.com, where you can find their documentation and articles. for example: Configuring Oracle Recovery Manager http://otn.oracle.com/oramag/oracle/02-nov/o62support.html or the RMAN Reference Manual: http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96565/toc.htm There exist a multitude of Oracle User Groups, where people (users) publish papers and present material. Check out http://www.ooug.org - click on "Presentations" - Joe Testa presented on RMAN Concepts in the April 2003 meeting. that's a start. Others have recommended Robert Freeman's Oracle 9i Backup and Recovery book under Oracle Press. I have a copy, but haven't read it enough to recommend it. If you have installed Oracle Enterprise Manager with a repository, you can use RMAN transparently via OEM.

Yes. It's called "RMAN". On 12/12/2003 02:04:46 PM, John wrote: > Do you know any script for doing export and backup of Oracle 9i R2 server? > > My oracle is on a SuSE linux.

Re: automate backup and export
The scripts depend on your set up and environment. Cold backup.. Shutdown database copy all datafile,controlfiles,.ora files, etc to a separate disk startup database Hot backup.. place the tablespace in backup mode copy the datafile to a different disk place the tablespace in normal mode ... copy archivelogs to separate disks. .. exports... Create parfiles with the export commands you want. use cron to execute the exp command with the parfile.. Use RMAN as an easy and effective alternative.
