User-Managed Offline Backup

The other names given to this kind of backup are Closed/Cold/Consistent Database backup. No recovery is needed in this kind of backup during the restore process.

Step 1:

Shut down the database

Connect to database as SYSDBA and then use the SHUTDOWN statement with NORMAL, IMMEDIATE or TRANSACTIONAL clause.



C:\> sqlplus /nolog

SQL>connect / as sysdba

SQL> SHUTDOWN NORMAL;

Remember that if there is any single user connected with the database and you have used the NORMAL clause with the SHUTDOWN statement then database will never shutdown unless the user closes the session.
