Process while

Select one of the following radio buttons to specify whether the restore operation is to be done online or offline.

Offline
The restore operation occurs offline (that is, no other application or user can be connected to the database or database partition when the restore is in progress). This is the default.

Online
The restore operation occurs online (that is, other applications and users can be connected to the database or database partition when the operation is in progress).
Note:Restoring all table spaces is not the same as doing a full restore of the database or database partition. When you restore the full database or database partition, the following also occurs:

  • The recovery history file for the database or database partition is restored.

  • The database configuration parameter values are restored to their state at the time of the backup.
When you restore all table spaces, you can do the operation either online, or offline.
