Re: Password file not getting updated

I imagine from the name and reference to Web Centre that the product is Secure Enterprise Search (I hope it works better than searching oracle.com or metalink but I digress). The Oracle database supplied as a part of that product is intended to be backed up using old fashioned cold o/s level backups along with core metadata that resides outside the database - See for example
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E21698_01/admin.1122/e21605/tuning002.htm . I'd hope that if the dbas are to be responsible for managing a new application such as this a little bit of application specific training might be made available. The Web Centre docs are available at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E21764_01/webcenter.htm for reference and include SES documentation.
