Running a Cold Backup

If you are running the database in no-archival mode, you should perform a cold backup frequently.

The backup is referred to as being “cold” because the management server is not running while the

backup is occurring.

NOTE:

This feature does not run if the Enable Database Archive Mode and RMAN Backup

option is selected. The Enable Database Archive Mode and RMAN Backup option performs an

RMAN backup periodically. See ”

About the Database Admin Utility

” on page 242 and

Setting the

Archive Mode

” on page 248 for more information.

The following is saved during a cold RMAN backup:

Management server RMAN backup files

- These files contain information about the elements

your management server monitors.

Oracle Network Configuration Files

-The configuration files are tnsnames.ora and

listener.ora.

CIM Repository

Property files, such as jboss.properties

rmanbackup.log file

spfileappiq.ora file
