Hey Ron.... I believe the name of that init parameter is
LOG_CHECKPOINTS_TO_ALERT (notice the "S") and it will record checkpoints
in the alert file. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Another way to get
some ideas about your checkpoints is v$sysstat.
Keep in mind however a checkpoint can occur without a log switch but not
vice-versa. A log switch has an implicit checkpoint within it, but if
you have checkpoints between log switches you will get more checkpoints in
your alert file than log switches.

Hi List,
(SunOS 5.7, Oracle 8.1.6,Newbie DBA)
I have been reading Oracle DBA 101 and have come accross an init<sid>.ora=
parameter
"log_checkpoint_to_alert". I believe that once this parameter is set, the=
alert log will be fed with
information about log switches.
I have applied this parameter (log_checkpoint_to_alert =3D true ) and bou=
nced our database but it will now not startup unless I remove this parame=
ter.
The error message I get is "LRM-00101: unknown parameter name 'log_checkp=
oint_to_alert'".
Could any kind soul please enlighten me ?
Thanks,
Ron
