Question Oracle on SLES10

Morning All,

Am looking at installing Oracle E-Business Suite R12 on a SLES10 box. In the process of looking into how I can do a full system backup with all services shutdown and am amazed that I can't find even the "dump" command.

Can anyone enlighten me on this one? Just got a quote for Backup Express for 3 servers with 3 tape drives attached and it's not a small amount to swallow in our budget!!

Just had a thought... I think dump is only for Tru64 Unix

I guess shutting all the software down and then using tar to dump each mount pount (eg /u01, /u02 etc) to tape would be the way forward then?

Kind of belt and braces or perhaps I'm looking at this from the wrong direction

Current Ebiz R11 + OraDB 9i on Tru64 Unix we do a shutdown of all services during the night, clone the disks and then do a full vdump (Tru64 Unix AdvFS utility).

New system I was thinking that perhaps use RMAN during the week but at weekends shutdown and full system dump to Tape.

Any recommendations are welcome

Andy
