Gillian - I love it! Dueling Instructors! Since you are still in class, why
don't you show him the manual and ask for clarification. Please check the
class notes on this. My copy is at home. Thanks.

ok - it so happens I am in the middle of the 9i New Features class. I just clarified that with the instuctor. And he repeated that if the log_checkpotint parameters are set, as well as the MTTR, then MTTR overides whatever the log_checkpoint parameters are set to.
I did not check out the official documentation. But the class manual says,
'Internally this is translated to a setting for Log_checkpoint_interval'
The instructor's name is Steve Bertuoi. Not sure how good he knows his stuff.
I guess I could play around with their test database here in the class, and see what really happens.

Gillian - But the documentation clearly says just the opposite. It says that if you set the LOG_CHECKPOINT_INTERVAL parameter, then that is what is used, rather than FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET. So I don't see how you can say that FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET overrides the LOG_CHECKPOINT_INTERVAL. Am I missing something here?

Just to add:
The MTTR parameter overides the Log_checkpoint_interval and the ...timeout parameter. Oracle sets these log_checkpoint parameters dynamically when the MTTR parameter is set.

Dist -
Since nobody seems to have responded,! ! I'll take a crack at it.
The Oracle9i documentation specifically says (in the Oracle9i Database
Reference) that either FAST_START_IO_TARGET or LOG_CHECKPOINT_INTERVAL will
override FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET. I would tend to believe them.
In the Oracle9i Performance Tuning Guide, Oracle contains a note that
you should disable or remove the FAST_START_IO_TARGET,
LOG_CHECKPOINT_INTERVAL, and LOG_CHECKPOINT_TIMEOUT parameters when using
FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET. Setting these parameters interferes with
FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET.
I don't see where LOG_CHECKPOINTS_TO_ALERT would cause a problem, but if
you are suspicious, you might check metalink.
As I understand it, the big advantage of FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET is its
ease and accuracy. Your management provides a goal for how long your Oracle
database can take to reco! ! ver in the situation where it crashes. You
simply
convert that number to seconds and set FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET. With the
! ! LOG_CHECKPOINT parameters, the settings are derived more indirectly.
Of course, there is no free lunch. Setting a shorter recovery time may
interfere with performance.

log_checkpoint_interval parameter?
I saw a document mention if log_checkpoint_interval define on ORACLE 9i, the fast_start_mttr_target parameter will be ignore. My question is:
log_checkpoint_interval = 10000 log_checkpoint_timeout = 1800 log_checkpoints_to_alert = true
fast_start_mttr_target=300
Do I need remove all the log_checkpoint* on init.ora file?
2. what kind of ! ! benefit that fast_start_mttr_target better than log_checkpoint* ?
Thanks
