What do you mean "no tool available"?

If you don't have any vendor tool,the ones provided by the db and os is the best choice.You can backup db to disk if you have storage server like IBM DS8000 or FAStT and backup OS to tape .In addition, do remember to backup the import filesystem if they locate on the share storage,/usr/sap and /sapmnt.

Now your system is safe enough!
