You'd think so wouldn't you.
I maintain 2 Ora8i db's and when I asked the system owners about their backup and recovery requirements, they said "Last night's network backup will be fine.".
So thats what they got - on the understanding of what it implied. If it all goes wrong - I did tell them but they didn't listen.
