Hi,

I have an issue with the oracle Cold backup on a Windows system. The OS is W2k Server.

The problem is that the Windows service for the instance comes up automatically after it is stopped by a job. I am using Veritas Netbackup to backup the entire server on to a tape.

What concerns me is the fact that the database is up and running by the time the drive on which the datafiles reside is backed up and the Veritas Netbackup logs say that the drive was backed up successfully. I do not have any ways to test the authenticity of the backups due to some constraints.

I have tried a couple of things like "net stop oracleserviceSID" and also with a VB script that brigs the service down.

Could any one please suggest the reason and solution to the problem.

Slightly urgent. Appreciate your speedy resonse. Thanks in advance.

KV

>> after it is stopped by a job.
The issue is with the Job.
>>Windows service for the instance comes up automatically
Never heard of it before and quite not possible.
Either your Job is not working properly
or
There is must some other "job" that will bring the instance back.
Did you try manually loggin in as sysdba and shutting it down?

Here is the job which was supposed to run before the Veritas Backup kicked in.

%ORADIR%\oradim -shutdown -sid KVKV -userpwd kvkv -shuttype srvc, inst -shutmode i

Can you please take a look at this?

Try shutting only instance.
Try other options like this
