- : |> 1) How do you back up Oracle databases today?
- : Oracle backups are usually done using using exports of the database.

- Excuse me, that might be valid with a scott/tiger database, but not
- something in production, big and 24 hours available.

- The DBA guide shows you how to do online backups of your tablespaces,
- an export to /dev/null from time to time will show you that
- the database is still valid.
