But you do have a good reason why the client should hire you. ;-)

I was afraid of that....
Media Name: "Media created 7/18/2003 08:00:06 PM"
Backup of "\\FAILSAFE\V$ "
Backup set #11 on storage media #1
Backup set description: "DailyBackup"
Backup Type: FULL - Back Up Files - Reset Archive Bit
Backup started on 7/19/2003 at 12:59:44 AM.
Backup completed on 7/19/2003 at 1:11:05 AM.
Backed up 31 files in 4 directories.
Processed 5,785,060,909 bytes in 11 minutes and 21 seconds.
Throughput rate: 486.1 MB/min
This doesn't give me a "warm" feeling. Alert log shows NOTHING.
This is a manufacturing site where the click of a bar code reader is moving materials from one location to another and that may or may not occur at any time. I'm not positive that one could say that this would never happen. Every time I've been in there looking around random jobs are coming into dbms_jobs in what appears to be all hours of the night.
They have an export, but I think that's it. If they take a backup on Sunday, I think everything is shutdown. It MIGHT be good if the moon is right.
Maks.

you don't have backups. Oracle will only support recovery from hot backups taken when the tablespaces are not flagged as in backup mode if you do the backup via RMAN.
Technically, if you are very very lucky, the moon is in the seventh house and Jupiter has aligned with Mars, you *MIGHT* be able to use the hot backup taken without RMAN. If and only if there is absolutely NO activity whatsoever in the database from the time the backup starts until when it finishes. Even then, recovery is still not supported.
