-------------------------------

The various markers in Figure 8-3-for example, marker MK100-are used to describe specific redo-related scenarios discussed in the following sections.

Figure 8-3. Shown is an abstracted redo log buffer, indicating the two pointers: the last redo allocation pointer and the last redo write pointer. The various markers (MK...) are used in describing specific scenarios in the text.

Suppose a server process needs redo related to a buffer change. It creates the change vectors and combines them into a single redo entry. At this point, the server process knows how many bytes of redo are required.
