Hi ,
I wanted to know the checkpoint information and the interval of checkpoint for my instance.
I have checked alert.log file for the same.
Is there is any other way or any view exists to get that information?
Please help...
Thanks-
P

The last checkpoint for the database is in v$database and the last for a particular file in v$datafile_header. Besides that, I'm not aware of any.
PS: If you really must, you can always read the alert log via an external table.

1. You can configure LOG_CHECKPOINTS_TO_ALERT
2. You can query V$SYSSTAT for the statistics 'background checkpoints started' and 'background checkpoints completed'.
You can only monitor background checkpoints -- those that are initiated at log switches.
Also, since 8i, Oracle has implemented incremental checkpoints (e.g. driven by FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET). Therefore, the "full" checkpoint at a log switch isn't necessarily large.
