The coordinator is a special thread. The coordinator monitors all threads in the database instance.

When the database instance is started, the coordinator is the first active thread. It coordinates the starting processes of the other threads.

·        UNIX: If a thread fails while a UNIX operating system is running, the coordinator terminates all other threads.

·        Windows: If a thread fails while a Windows operating system is running, an exception handler becomes responsible for terminating all the other threads in an orderly way.
