My instance is running in Automatic undo management mode.
I am using two undo tablespace (undo01,undo02)
Currently undo_tablespace is set to undo01.

there are transactions records in undo01
and i switch to undo02: alter system set undo_tablespace=undo02

as a result the undo01 tablespace turns to pending offline mode

then i commit all the transaction: commit;

But undo01 tablespace is still in pending offline mode

after sometime the undo01 tablespace gets offline automatically

Why does it take some time for the undo01 tablespace to turn from pending offline mode to offline mode
does the undo_retention has to do something with that extra time ???

After committed all active transactions the undo tablespace goes from pending offline to offline.

Do you know really when Oracle actually committed transaction?

Answer is No.
