What is the DB_BLOCK_CHECKING parameter?
Rating:
DB_BLOCK_CHECKING is an instance parameter that helps in setting block checking at the database level. The default value of this parameter is false, but it can be set to true. When this parameter is set to false, it helps detect the damages caused by faulty memory. But when it is set to true, Oracle processes check the data block for consistency every time the buffer containing the block is accessed.
