The Control file records the structure of the database so structural
changes such as altering a tablespace to add a datafile, adding a log
group, etc... would result in an update to the Control files.

        If using RMAN, backup information would be written there. (heck,
I tihnk even i fyou use a catalog, some info is put there).
        information on archivelogs are stored there
        Adding and removing datafiles, resizing datafiles, new
tablespaces.
        
        I'm sure I'm missing some.

        Hi all,
            Just a general question about controlfiles.  I was ready the
archive messages for this list and found out that controlfiles are
updated everytime a checkpoint happens.  Can anyone list any other
reasons an update would happen to the controlfiles?
        
        Thanks,
        Lyall Barbour
