I thought that you have to use the OCOPY command (not normal COPY) in a
Windows environment to copy files in hotbackup mode. 

Correct me if I am wrong as I am not 100% certain about hot backups in a
Windows environment.

I took a quick look at this paper, and found right away, that it's not very
accurate, at least in one issue.
i.e., it states :
< quote>
The Windows NT command COPY can be used to create a cold backup of a
database. It cannot be used to make a
hot backup. Attempting to perform a hot backup with COPY will usually result
in an error message being generated
as the COPY command fails - during a hot backup the database is running and
thus the database files are locked by
the Oracle database process, and COPY cannot work on a file that is so
locked.
< /quote>

Wrong. NT 'COPY' has no problems copying 'opened' oracle db files.
I'm using it in 'hot backup' scripts on many dozens systems, and it works
fine.

Don't know about the accuracy of the rest of the paper, didn't have time to
read it all.
