DESCRIPTION
Before you can start a backup session, you must configure the backup location, size
limits, and the timeout.
During backup, the command waits until running sessions complete and stops the
Application Recovery Manager services. All IDB and configuration files are then
packed and stored in a single backup file. After the backup finishes, the services are
started again.
During restore, the command waits until running sessions complete and stops the
Application Recovery Manager services. The IDB and configuration are restored from
the backup location and the services are started again.
