DB_UNRECOVERABLE_SCN_TRACKING enables or disables the tracking of unrecoverable (NOLOGGING) direct-path INSERT and direct-path load operations.

When the value is set to true, updates are made to the controlfile that maintains the V$DATAFILE.UNRECOVERABLE_CHANGE# and V$DATAFILE.UNRECOVERABLE_TIME columns. When the value is set to false, updates are not made to the controlfile. Setting this parameter to false may improve performance of direct-path NOLOGGING operations.
