Hi,
We currently do hot backups to disk and then dump to tape only the
directories that contain all the pices of the hot backups. We also do a
cold backup once a week to catch all of the O/S type stuff along with
Oracle.
I am assuming that anything else that is Oracle related would be static
enough to get off of the weekly backups should the need arise. I.E. Init
files, scripts and the like.
HTH
