Absolutely agree.
For a couple of minutes work, you can begin to get a decent back-up strategy in place (including hot-backups (RMAN) and, if you use 10G, flashback)

Subject: AW: Archivelog Mode
Hi Ashok
No, there is NO other way to enable archive log mode.
I think you shouldn't have a problem convincing the business that a short downtime (1 minute maximum) is needed unless they don't want to risk loosing the entire database.

Betreff: Archivelog Mode
Hi,
I am trying to take the Backup of a DB.
For that we need to move the DB to archivelog mode.
For moving to archivelog mode we need to Shutdown and Startup DB in Mount stage right.
Is there is any other way to change the DB to Archivelog mode without shutdown the DB.
Since the DB which I am tiring to take Backup is up running and we don't have idle time to shutdown.
Regards,
Ashok.
