To back up Logical RAW files, use the following syntax:
C:\>OCOPYnn \\.\C: new_file
C:\>OCOPYnn /B \\.\C: a:
where c: represents the raw drive, which holds a single RAW database
file. If you use a different drive as your raw drive, substitute it for c:.
To back up Physical RAW files, use the following syntax:
C:\>OCOPYnn \\.\ physicaldriveN : new_file
C:\>OCOPYnn /B \\.\ physicaldriveN : a:
where N is the number(s) representing each of the physical drives in the
system.
To restore RAW files, use the following syntax:
C:\>OCOPYnn new_file \\.\c:
C:\>OCOPYnn /R a: \\.\c:
where c: represents the raw drive, which holds a single RAW database
file. If you use a different drive as your raw drive, substitute it for c:.
OCOPY prompts you to insert diskettes as needed.
Use Recovery Manager to recover your Oracle7 database after a failure.
