It looks like when option "ORDER" is used Oracle guarantees the generated values will be in order since the "CACHE" option will be ignored by Oracle even if it was requested.
This is in the parallel mode.
Look at note: Note:1031850.6

I'm managing an OPS configuration (4x HP 9000/N, HP-UX 11/64 , RDBMS
8.1.7.1)
and I'm having an application dependency on a temporal order of sequence
numbers.
With OPS that becomes a problem because each node caches a set of sequence
numbers
(20 by default). Oracle has an option, specifically for that situation,
namely "ORDER".
My question is whether ORDER is the same thing as NOCACHE and whether it is
possible
to have a NOCACHE sequence which will return numbers in an incorrect order
(larger number
before the smaller one).
Please, o OPS gods and godesses, help me out and I'll sacrifice you a beer
when I see you.
