Locating Control Files
The starter database contains three control files
.  
These files are located in the 
ora_root:[oradata.<
db_name
>]
 directory
.  
The files 
control01.ctl
control02.ctl
, and 
control03.ctl
 are automatically included in the Custom 
database
.  
Oracle Corporation recommends that you keep at least three control files 
(on separate physical drives) for each database and set the CONTROL_FILES 
initialization parameter to list each control file
 
 describes the database 
control files.
Using Rollback Segments
Rollback segments record the old values of data that are changed by each 
transaction, whether or not the transaction has been committed.  Every database 
contains one or more rollback segments.  Use rollback segments to provide read 
consistency, to roll back transactions, and to recover the database.  The rollback 
segments of the starter database are as follows:
Rollback segment SYSTEM is contained in tablespace SYS and is used by SYS.
Rollback segments _SYSSMU1$ through _SYSSMU10$ are a pool of rollback 
segments that any instance can use if it requires a rollback segment.  They are 
contained in tablespace UNDOTBS<n> and are used by PUBLIC.
Using the Data Dictionary
The data dictionary is a protected collection of tables and views containing 
reference information on the database, its structure, and its users
.  
The data that is 
stored in the dictionary includes the following:
Table 5–4
Database Control Files
Control Files
Description
control01.ctl
control02.ctl
control03.ctl
A control file is an administrative file
.  
Oracle9i requires a 
control file to start and run the database
.  
The control file 
records the physical structure of the database
.  
For example, a 
control file contains the database name, and the names and 
locations of the database data files and redo log files.
