The RMU Copy_Database command allows you to modify certain area parameters when the copy operation is performed. All the files are processed simultaneously during the copy operation. The copy operation's performance is similar to that of the RMU Backup command. The RMU Copy_Database command eliminates the need for intermediate storage media. NOTE You must perform a full and complete Oracle RMU backup operation immediately after the Copy_Database operation completes to ensure that the database can be properly restored after a database failure or corruption. Also note that if you do not specify either the After_ Journal qualifier or the Aij_Options qualifier when you issue the RMU Copy_Database command, after-image journaling is disabled for the database copy and no .aij files are associated with the database copy.
