Re: brarchive backup other than /oracle/SID/oraarch

Backing up NON-SAP- dirs is the wrong approach.

Check out Two Phase Backup instead:

That would be

brarchive -d disk ...

for run 1

and

brarchive -a -d util_file

for run 2

at least as far as I understood the documentation.

(Never did set it up that way myself)
