Backup remote Oracle 7

Post by devweb » Sun 17 Aug 2008 09:11

Hello,

We have an old server running oracle 7 under hp-Unix.

we usually make the execute the backup on the server then download it to another windows station using FTP service.

We looking to automate this work, but we are not sure if ODAC will be able to execute the first part by backup the database on the server, but not using exp command on client machine, because the connection isn't fast and stable.

I think ODAC cannot be used in such situation. ODAC doesn't have a feature to backup database on the server.
