I have a question that is a variation on 272.
My customer has 60GB od raw data )Oracle OPS environment). He wants to
make a copy of this data onto another set of disks. This is because he
will be running several tests, and needs to "reload" his database
without all the pain of doing the database reload.
He would like to use Networker to do a backup and immediate restore to
the other set of disks WITHOUT going to tape. For filesystems, we can
do a vdump | vrestore which does a disk to disk copy. Is it possible to
do something like this with Networker?
Thanks,
/jim

to copy your disk to disk, you can use "dd" (I suppose you are on unix ) but the disk must be identical. [Posted by WWW Notes gateway] | |||||

To properly transport your DB, Oracle recommends you do an export
to flat file, and import to reconstruct that DB in a new environment.
You also did not mention if this was Unix, or NT... 272 is about NT (but then
devolves into generalities)
Purely Theoretical (unix models, dunno which might work for NT):
tar->tar, disk->disk?
cd /dev/<dbdisk>; tar cpf - . | (cd /dev/<emptydisk>; tar xpf -)
DMO?
shutdown DB, obackup offline database, switchover to new DB, obackup
recover database - this is *pure ORACLE*, so see them for details...
uasm/rawasm
same as tar, but using these tools. see man pages for details.
