Lyndon, You are comparing Apple with Orange here. I can backup my hsql database which is stored in a text file with:
cp my_db my_db.backup using OS command only. :) Richard Ji -----Original Message----- Sent: Monday, February 10, 2003 6:04 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L If only Oracle can come up with a Postgresql command such as: pg_dump dbname | gzip > dbname_backup.gz Then backups would be easy. I know, I know Oracle can do the same with export, and sqlplus but hell it ain't that easy with Oracle. -- Lyndon Tiu -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: Lyndon Tiu INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
