SMON
SMON (System MONitor) is an Oracle background process created when you start a database instance. The SMON process performs instance recovery, cleans up after dirty shutdowns and coalesces adjacent free extents into larger free extents.
SMON wakes up every 5 minutes to perform housekeeping activities. SMON must always be running for an instance. If not, the instance will terminate.
[edit]Check process

The following Unix/Linux command is used to check if the SMON process is running:
$ ps -ef | grep smon
oracle   31144     1  0 11:10 ?        00:00:00 ora_smon_orcl


PMON
PMON (Process MONitor) is an Oracle background process created when you start a database instance. The PMON process will free up resources
if a user process fails (eg. release database locks).
PMON normally wakes up every 3 seconds to perform its housekeeping activities. PMON must always be running for an instance. If not, the
instance will terminate.
