If using RMAN, backup information would be written there. (heck, I tihnk even i fyou use a catalog, some info is put there).
information on archivelogs are stored there
Adding and removing datafiles, resizing datafiles, new tablespaces.
I'm sure I'm missing some.

Subject: controlfiles being updated
Hi all,
Just a general question about controlfiles. I was ready the archive messages for this list and found out that controlfiles are updated everytime a checkpoint happens. Can anyone list any other reasons an update would happen to the controlfiles?
Thanks,
Lyall Barbour
