Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: redo logs
Dennis,
He asked about 'undo'. That is in the rollback segments, or the UNDO tablespace.

Subject: RE: redo logs
Yes. Remember that Oracle doesn't wait for a commit before it writes redo. It is even possible for uncommitted data to get written to the data files. This is a real performance boost on a busy system. In case of a crash, Oracle must be able to recreate the "before" image of the data.
If you become more interested in this, take a look at LogMiner. Once
you
see all the details in a redo log, you'll be much more impressed with
Oracle's integrity and throughput! And a good time to practice with
LogMiner
is when you aren't under pressure.

Dennis , so what you are trying to say is that the redo logs store undo
data
also ?
