Finally book that explains it all. Very simple, easy to read/understand. Backup commands in various operating systems VMS, Windows NT, UNIX, VMS, Physical, logical backups and useful backup scripts. Author has done excellent job explaining backup/recovery using Oracle Enterprise Manager 2.1 against Oracle 8i database. Very good examples on using Oracle Console/Oracle Management Server. This book is very new and has already one of my favorite book among other Oracle press books I have in my library. Oracle Enterprise Manager is available on OTN Network for download ...
