Garmany : Application Server Backup & Recovery Tool : "When Oracle
released Application Server 10g, it provided a backup tool that has gotten
little press. In the Oracle Press book, Oracle Application Server 10g
Administration Handbook I only mentioned the tool but did not discuss how to use
it. That was because I was working on the AS10g Beta and didn’t have it to test.
Well now it is out and I’m a convert! You can even reinstall an infrastructure
on another server and restore your backup over it to recreate a failed
infrastructure. COOL!
The Backup and Recovery Tool is actually a Perl script that backs up all
of the configuration files for a tier. If the tier is an infrastructure tier and
contains a metadata repository database, it will back that up also. "
