Describe DBWn

Database Writer ProcessThe DBWn processes are responsible for writing modified (dirty) buffers in the database buffer cache to disk.DBWn writes non- frequently used buffers to the data files from the tail of the LRU list so that processes can replace buffers when they need them. DBWn also writes from the tail of the checkpoint queue to keep the checkpoint advancing.
