剩下的唯一的问题是,这里的cache recovery是什么?显然它不是官方文档中所描述的”cache recovery”,几乎没有任何文档介绍存在这样一个recovery操作,这也是本文重点要介绍的。
我们来看另一个演示,这个演示用以说明cache recovery还存在于最普通的不包含Crash Recovery的数据库打开过程中:
SQL> shutdown immediate;
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup mount;
ORACLE instance started.

因为是clean shutdown,所以这里不存在crash recovery。但这里同样出现了”SMON: enabling cache recovery”,可见cache recovery是每次实例启动instance startup必要执行的一种恢复操作。但问题是,这个恢复操作到底针对何种对象?
