Hey, just to confirm what I think is obvious... For an oracle database to be backed up on NT with Legato: you need to either; shutdown, cold backup via legato, startup, or online backup mode and legato's "Oracle database" extension, [or some sort of strategy involving oracle export].
And to verify... legato's "backup an in-use file" extension used to backup oracle database datafiles that have not been shutdown... will not give a viable backup ??? A department that has not paid for my section's DBA services has just phoned up with restore problems with a database backed up in this manner! If someone could confirm the obvious, I would be grateful.
