Friends,

DB: 10.2.0.4

While i was going thru the dataguard oracle's documentation, i saw the word thread...
actually, what does this thread means?

*"(maximum number of logfiles for each thread + 1) * maximum number of threads"*

and what does this thread means?

*"The following statement adds a new standby redo log file group to a standby database and assigns it to THREAD 5:*

*SQL> ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE THREAD 5*
*2> ('/oracle/dbs/log1c.rdo','/oracle/dbs/log2c.rdo') SIZE 500M;*
*"*

is it a node or server or the process? is the meaning of this thread will be same in all the oracle concepts documentation?

thanks
