Yes, you should perform a complete refresh for all dependent = materialized views.

It depends on the refresh type:

1. COMPLETE --> don't care (such MV are not really dependent from the MV = log)
2. FAST --> you get an error
3. FORCE --> no valid MV log is found, therefore complete refresh is = automatically performed
