Db_flashback_retention_target vs Undo_retention

JhilMay 8 2014 — edited May 8 2014

Hi All ;

I have some confusion. Difference between Db_flashback_retention_target vs Undo_retention.

How both are interlinked to work with flashback technology ?

DB_FLASHBACK_RETENTION_TARGET -->  that defines how much flashback data Oracle has kept in the flash recovery area.


UNDO_RETENTION  -->  retains undo for at least the time specified in this parameter.

show parameter DB_FLASHBACK_RETENTION_TARGET;

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE

------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------

db_flashback_retention_target        integer     1400

SQL> show parameter undo;

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE

------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------

undo_management                      string      AUTO

undo_retention                       integer        900

undo_tablespace                      string      UNDOTBS1
