• Writes modified (dirty) blocks in the buffer cache to the

data files

• Operates in batch mode

• When

  • There are too many dirty blocks
    • DB_BLOCK_MAX_DIRTY_TARGET
  • A process scans a specified number of buffers in the LRU list without finding a free buffer
  • A time-out occurs (every 3 seconds)
  • A checkpoint occurs

• You can configure additional DBWR processes by

setting the DB_WRITER_PROCESSES parameter in the

parameter file

Database Writer (DBWR)

• Writes information in the redo log buffer to the redo

logs

• Writes When:

  • Every time a commit is issued
  • When redo log buffer is 1/3 full
  • When there is more than 1 MB of changes
  • Before DBWR (DB Writer) completes cleaning modified buffer blocks in the buffer cache by writing them to the data files
  • When a timeout occurs (every 3 seconds)

Log Writer (LGWR)

• Cleans up failed processes by handling existing

transactions and recovering memory

  • Rolls back existing transactions
  • Releases any locks held by the process
  • Releases other resources held by the process
  • Checks server and dispatcher processes and restarts them when necessary

Process Monitor (PMON)

• Used to synchronize data files, mandatory in Oracle 8i

  • In Oracle 8 takes it handles the task of updating the data file headers instead of log writer
  • Frequent checkpoints increase the speed of database recovery during instance failure but may hinder performance

• CHECKPOINT_PROCESS = True (Before 8i)

Checkpoint (CKPT)

• PGA

  • Used by only one process and is not shared
  • Gets Created when Server Process Starts.
  • Contents
    • Stack space
    • Session information
    • Cursor state
    • Sort area

Query Processing

• Parse

• Execute

  • Identifies the rows that are selected

• Fetch

  • Returns the rows to the user process and ordered if necessary

• Record the “before” image before data is actually

changed in the database

• Purpose

  • Allows user to roll back a transaction
  • Allows other users to see the original image until the changes have been committed
  • Allows the database to be recovered if the instance fails
