Yes, the traced session will continue to be traced after the session
that initiated the trace has exited.
 
One way to find out if a trace is currently being run is to check the
most recent files in your user_dump_dest directory, but that's not a
foolproof method since there could be a trace running, but no activity
in the traced session, or there could be a trace being written to a
directory other than your current user_dump_dest directory if someone
changed the parameter temporarily or used other methods to write their
trace file to a different location (e.g. I think you can do that with
oradebug).

        Will the trace still be on for the submitted sid and serialnum?

         

        I am curious to find out how to identify if a trace is currently
being run.
