HP-UX 11/8.1.7/Recovery

Hi All!

We had an interesting sequence of events last night, and I was hoping somebody could tell me if what we saw was what should've happened. Clear? As mud? Ok...

System is up and running.
The backup process starts, and puts the datafiles in backup mode. The system crashes. Hard. Memory fault. When the database comes back up, it successfully performs media recovery and pronounces itself OK.
We check, and the datafiles are NOT in backup mode.

So we're wondering...does media recovery take the datafiles out of backup mode automatically? Can you point me to a doco on this?

Thanks,
Mike
