online Backup

[SSuhaib]

Hi,

Can any one clarify weather bi file is also backed up during an online backup? I read some where that bi is not backed up in the 10.2a and the bi file is zero when restored in a different place.

Thanks in advance.

That seems eminently testable. Try it. Let us know what you see.

(The -norecover option skips crash recovery... perhaps that is what you are thinking of?)

If one did not back up the BI file, one would have a corrupt backup.
