Back Up the Oracle E-Business Suite Database
Oracle recommends that you make a cold backup of the Oracle E-Business Suite database
in case you encounter problems during the upgrade process. You can use the backup to
restore the database (if necessary).
Note:
Shut down the database using the NORMAL option to ensure you can use the backup to restore the database. Do not use the IMMEDIATE or ABORT option to shut down the database.Parent topic: Upgrading to Oracle LSH Release 3.4
