thanks,Hahn.

But i also have some questions.

One,IS the logvolume in the hard disk or in the memory?

Two, Do the savepoint activate the write process only?

In oracle,there are two important process:DBWR and LGWR.DBWR control datas write operation from memory to disk and LGWR control logs write operation from memory to disk.There are many event can trigger DBWR and LGWR.e.g,when commit,when 1/3 of redo log buffer(in memory) be used,when checkpoint activation .....

I understand only savepoint can activate the write process in maxdb from your answer.I don't know if it is right for my understanding.

Where can i find the documents about the read and write mechanism of maxdb?
thanks.

Hello Liu,

MaxDB's savepoint is similar to Oracle's checkpoint.

If no other reason caused a savepoint a savepoint is written if since the
last savepoint 2/3 of the logvolume is used.
If no other reason caused a savepoint and 5000 Log writes were done in at
least 600 sec (default) a sapoint is triggered.

Kind regards, Uwe
