Hi all.
I´m starting to work with Oracle Database 12c.
I need advise on a procedure for performing a Cold Backup of the Database using OS commands.
This is of course an alternate mechanism for backing up the DB (I´m aware of RMAN an EXPDP).
So is it best to shutdown and do a Cold Backup of all databases (container and PDBs) or do Alter pluggable database PDBTEST close immediate and proceed for each pluggable and finally container?
Thanks in advance !!!.
