RECOVERY_TIME Option

Sets the maximum length of time, in minutes, that the database server takes to recover from system failure.

Allowed Values

Integer, in minutes

Default

2

Scope

Option can be set at the database (PUBLIC) level only.

Requires the SET ANY SYSTEM OPTION system privilege to set this option. You must restart the server for the change to take effect.

Remarks

Use this option with the CHECKPOINT_TIME option to decide when checkpoints should be done.

A heuristic measures the recovery time based on the operations since the last checkpoint. Thus, the recovery time is not exact.
