I am trying for online backup
My settings are
Database Log Mode -- Archive Mode
Automatic Archival -- Enabled
While taking the backup of tablespaces and I the script I used
Alter tablespace users begin backup;
host ocopy80 d:\oracle\oradata\mydb\users01.dbf h:\backup\user01.bak
Alter tablespace users end backup;
However when I checked in h:\backup directory there is no file
named users01.bak. Then I changed the the command from ocopy80
to simple copy in dos i.e.
host copy d:\oracle\oradata\mydb\users01.dbf h:\backup\user01.bak
Here I can see the file users01.bak in h:\backup.
Is this the correct as I found ocopy80 in oracle 8.0.3 manual
and I am using Oracle 8.1.6 ?
What Is then command to take backup In Linux ?
Do I have to use cp or other command ?

I don't know about the ocopy command, I just use the operating system commands which as you saw seemed to work fine.
In linux you can use cp.
-
you can also use the bang ! operator in linux/unix..
alter tablespace <ts> begin back up;
! cp /absolute path of source /destination
alter tablespace <ts> end back up;

I couldn't find anything called ocopy in 8i.
I checked in $ORACLE_HOME/bin of 8.1.5 and 8.1.7 Versions

I use OCOPY and it works fine but I'm running on WINNT.
Try using the OCOPY without the 80.

Ocopy is not a command of oracle buta command for NT . It is for operating system .
The difference between copy and Ocopy is that when you say copy it locks the access of teh files and does not let anyone else use it which may create a problem during a hot backup . Hence fo that teh ocopy command is there . It minimises locking of these files at the operating system level.
try to use Ocopy for NT
