Yes, TC is necessary to perform a valid memory dump.
 
No, TC has absolutely nothing to do with the recovery of user logging
or scheduled jobs. All data necessary for these 2 tasks is always
retrieved from disc. To perform these 2 tasks, though, a START RECOVERY
must be executed and not a START NORECOVERY.
