Answer / vishal sharna

offline backup is the traditional backup in which we cannot
take the backup untill the application is closed but its
quite consistent,but as we know its very cost effective to
close all the application and then take the backup,so we
will take the online backup.in this case we an take the
backup of running aplication but set the recovery log mod
to rollforward,with the help of it we can restore our
database to the most recent state.
