Hi All,
please some one help me on this.
I know it is a awkward question, but still i need to be clear.
1)How a single control file is enough to have all the transaction's SCN no for older transactions.
Eg - A transaction has the SCN 01 and after a month the new transaction's SCN is 502.
Is the control file holding all those (01 to 502) SCN in it or just will have the latest SCN no (ie - 502).
Regards:
Muktha

The controlfile stores the current SCN, exposed in v$database:
select current_scn from v$database;
Are you under the impression that the controlfile stores the commit SCN for transactions? Why would that be necessary?
