Hi all,

performing a standard file system backup with networker,
one could use a directive called "standard UNIX directive".
One of the entries in this directive is to skip files named "core".
No problem - noone wants coredumps saved.

But yesterday i saw some directories under ORACLE_HOME named "core".
As expected, these are NOT saved with networker.

Here is my Question: Are these directories essential for networker
and worth saving? Is this a bug in networker?

These directories are (in Oracle 10g):
bash-3.0RACLE_HOME $ find . -name core
./oc4j/j2ee/oc4j_applications/applications/isqlplus/isqlplus/WEB-
INF/classes/oracle/sqlplus/iplus/core
./sysman/admin/emdrep/sql/core
./sysman/patches/5557962/files/sysman/admin/emdrep/sql/core
./.patch_storage/5557962_Nov_9_2006_23_23_06/backup/sysman/admin/emdrep/sql/core
./.patch_storage/5557962_Nov_9_2006_23_23_06/original_patch/files/sysman/admin/emdrep/s
ql/core
./.patch_storage/5557962_Nov_9_2006_23_23_06/files/sysman/admin/emdrep/sql/core

        best regards 
                Stefan
