So I want OS level volume backup

In my location, we use flarcreate to create a bare-metal OS level backup,

I want just OS level root (it means internal disk). What will be the command

to volume backup just OS level to tape or drive. (it means when system broke, I

recover OS level by flarcreate and use another tape for DB recovery).

Is it ok I just flarcreate only internal disk? what is the actual meaning OS level

backup? It will be ok I can recover by two step, 1 flarcreate 2 coldbackup

tape.

Is it something like

flarcreate -n "utlabsflar" -c -S -R / -x /oradata1 -x /oradata2 -x /oradata3 -x /absdata1 -x /absdata2 -x /abadata3 -x /absdata4 -x /absdata5 -x /absdata6 -x /absdata7 -x /absindex1 -x /absindex2 -x /absindex3 -x /orabackup -x /operdata1 -x /operdata2 -x /operdata3 -t /dev/rmt/0n
