I second that. We backup Oracle on Solaris but we insist that the oracle is down.

Re: Anyone syncing database files?
You can do a hot backup by simply setting all the tablespaces in backup mode (alter tablespace 'BLAA' begin backup). Then you can rsync the database files and do an 'end backup' on each tablespace after. This will give you files that are consistient and the database will be recoverable from those files. A hot backup is useless unless you do this... eric Brian Cuttler wrote: I second that. We backup Oracle on Solaris but we insist that the oracle is down.

Is the patch for that in the released version yet?
