Writes all page changes back to the database since the last
COMMIT or last ROLLBACK command was entered.
1 – Description
The results of DEPOSIT and MOVE commands are kept in virtual
memory until you issue a COMMIT or a ROLLBACK command. When you
issue a COMMIT command, all pages that you changed since the last
COMMIT or last ROLLBACK command are written to the database in
their new form.
Changes are not permanent until you issue a COMMIT command. If
you issue an EXIT command while altered but uncommitted pages
exist, an error results. You cannot issue the EXIT command until
you first issue either a COMMIT or a ROLLBACK command.
Oracle Corporation recommends that you make a backup copy of the
database after you issue the RdbALTER COMMIT command.
