database in backup mode

user88831Jan 26 2011 — edited Jan 27 2011
Hi Guys,

If I put my database in backup mode and perform the backup (hotbackup/online) of the database.

When I need to do restoration, do I need any archive logs at all? (not necessary to recover up to point in time) Can i just restore the datafiles and do a alter database open resetlogs?

Will the database be inconsistent and can't startup without applying any archive logs at all? as the datatabase is not shutdown when doing the backup.

thanks
