Thank you to Nikola Milutinovic, Alan Angulo, Udo de Boer, Marlene Lam,
Jean-Marie Robin, J.A. Gutierrez, Trevor Osatchuk, Len Whitwer and Joerg
Bruehe for responding to my message. I appreciated all your responses.
I went with the following commands to complete the backup of the necessary
files I wanted.
1. Copy textual control file
find /d06/trace/* | tail -1 >>backemup.dat
2. Write all prod files to backemup.dat
find /d0[1234567]/oradata/prod -type f -print | grep -v 'archp'
>>backemup.dat
3. Write all archive log files to backemup.dat
ls /d06/oradata/prod/archive/*.ARC >>backemup.dat
4. Copy all files listed in backemup.dat to tape.
cpio -ovC65536 <backemup.dat> /dev/rmt2h
5. Remove backemup.dat file when finished.
rm backemup.dat
6. List contents of tape
cpio -itvC65536 -I/dev/rmt2h
Thanks again,
Ciao,
