Can the files in ADR home be backed up?
Yes, go into ADRCI, do a SET HOMEPATH to the particular home that you wish to backup and execute the following command: adrci>>BEGIN BACKUP Do not exit ADRCI as this will release the backup state of the files allowing other users to write once again into the metadata files. Proceed to copy the files in the metadata directory to wherever you wish via whatever operating system commands you use. When done, make sure you execute END BACKUP to free the backup state. You do this once per ADR HOME that you wish to take a backup of.
