RE: timestamp resolution

What hardware is this running on. The timestamp function is dependent on
what precision your hardware and OS supports. Windows on dell only support 3
decimal places for example while other support down to 6.

Subject: timestamp resolution

Hi all

My environment is Red Hat 4, 64 bit and oracle 10.2.0.2 64bit

A newly created databases gives me some trouble. This query and output
is from another database

select current_timestamp from dual;

CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
27-SEP-07 08.41.39.980750 AM +02:00

all fine and dandy, if rerun all the decimals are changed, but running
on the new database gives me
27-SEP-07 08.41.39.980000 AM +02:00
and it is only the 2 first decimals that are changed, the rest is always
zeros.

Anyone who could advice on what could trigger this?
