有同学在 T.askmac.cn上提问关于增量检查点更新控制文件的问题：
Know more about checkpoint
checkpoint 分成很多种 full 、file、thread、parallel query、 object 、incremental 、logfile switch
每一种checkpoint 都有其自身的特性，例如Incremental Checkpoint会要求ckpt 每3s 更新一次controlfile 但是不更新datafile header， 而FULL CHECKPOINT要求立即完成(同步的) 且会同时更新 controlfile 和 datafile header。
Incremental Checkpoint会要求ckpt 每3s 更新一次controlfile
>>我想问的时：如何查看此时控制文件中更新的SCN?除了DUMP控制文件，有没有命令查询?
我希望通过以下演示说明该问题：
SQL> select * from v$version; BANNER ---------------------------------------------------------------- Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.5.0 - 64bi PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.5.0 - Production CORE 10.2.0.5.0 Production TNS for Linux: Version 10.2.0.5.0 - Production NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.5.0 - Production SQL> oradebug setmypid; Statement processed.

比较以上获得的2个前后有6s间隔的CONTROLFILE DUMP 文件：

排除部分V$RMAN_STATUS记录存在差异外，最主要的差别在于： CHECKPOINT PROGRESS RECORDS 这是因为 ckpt 每3s一次对controlfile做heartbeat 更新 CHECKPOINT PROGRESS RECORDS。
第一次 controlf dump：

第二次 controlf dump:

差异在于
on disk rba
on disk scn
heartbeat
Flashback log tail log#
即实际CKPT每3s更新heartbeat控制文件一次，更新的内容是 on disk rba、on disk scn、heartbeat 如果启用了闪回日志的话那么还有Flashback log ， 而并不更新数据库当前的SCN(CURRENT SCN)。
如果你想查看ckpt每3s更新的 on disk scn的话可以参考 内部视图X$KCCCP–[K]ernel [C]ache [C]ontrolfile management [c]heckpoint [p]rogress X$KCCCP Checkpoint Progress Records:
