    I can picture SMON and DBWn doing most of the leg work.

    Why DBWn? let me answer with a question: Who writes to the datafiles?

    RECO process is related to distributed transactions, not to database recovery.

    SMON - performs instance recovery

    PMON - performs process recovery (user process) which cleans up database buffer cache and frees resources that the user process was using

    DBW - When we issue recovery, archive redo log files begin to apply to data files. It's DBW duty
