How to make a cold backup of an Oracle XE 18c database?

Jose ArósteguiOct 1 2020

Hi experts,
I'm using a Oracle Database 18c Express Edition Version 18.4.0.0.0 with the initial XEPDB1 pluggable db created and in use.
How should I proceed to make a cold backup? What directories should I copy?
In my old 11.2 XE was like this:

  1. Shutdown
  2. tar cpvfz /var/opt/orafullbackup/${FILENAME} /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/dbs /u01/app/oracle/oradata/XE /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area
    Thanks,
    Jose.
