Oracle Exadata X5 Administration Sample Questions:
Question 1
Identify three valid configuration options that can be implemented during the initial configuration process of a new X5 Database Machine by using the Exadata Deployment Assistant.
A. Virtualized Compute Node configuration
B. OS users that own the Grid Infrastructure installation
C. Virtualized Storage node configuration
D. The size for the system area on the first two disks in each cell
E. Cluster configuration for up to 32 clusters
Question 2
You plan to partition the database and storage grids in an X5-2 full rack, creating two clusters and two storage grids without using virtualization.
One cluster will be used for production and should consist of six database servers and nine storage servers.
The other cluster will be used for test and development, and should consist of two database servers and five storage servers.
The storage must be partitioned so that the storage servers are visible only to the appropriate database servers that are meant to access them.
What must be done to achieve this?
A. Configure Exadata realms using Database-scoped security mode.
B. Edit the CELLIP.ORA file on each database server to contain IP addresses of database servers which are allowed access to specific storage servers in the same storage grid.
C. Configure Exadata realms using Oracle ASM-scoped security mode.
D. Edit the CELLINIT.ORA file on each database server to contain IP addresses of storage servers in the storage grid associated with the cluster to which that database server belongs.
E. Edit the CELLIP.ORA file on each storage server to contain IP addresses of database servers in the database server grid that are associated with the storage grid to which that storage server belongs.
F. Edit the CELLIP.ORA file on each database server to contain IP addresses of storage servers in the storage grid associated with the cluster to which that database server belongs.
Question 3
Which two statements are true about the Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) on an Exadata X5 or X6 Database Machine?
A. ILOM on database servers can use IPMI to send sensor alerts to an Enterprise Manager Agent.
B. ILOM on a storage server uses IPMI to send sensor alerts to the MS process on the same storage server.
C. ILOM on database servers can use SNMP to send sensor alerts to an Enterprise Manager Agent.
D. ILOM on a storage server uses SNMP to send sensor alerts to the MS process on the same storage server.
E. ILOM on a storage server uses SNMP to send sensor alerts to the cellsrv process on the same storage server.
Question 4
You are evaluating the performance of a SQL statement that accesses a very large table.
You run this query:
Identify two reasons why the "cell physical IO interconnect bytes" statistic is greater than the "cell physical IO interconnect bytes returned by smart scan" statistic.
A. The table is a hash clustered table, causing "cell multiblock physical reads" to be requested by the database instance, resulting in additional I/O.
B. There is a transaction, which committed after the query began, that has modified some of the table blocks, causing some "cell single block physical reads" to be requested by the database instance, resulting in additional I/O.
C. There is a local index on a list partitioned table on the column used in the WHERE clause, causing "cell list of blocks physical reads" to be requested by the database instance, resulting in additional I/O.
D. There are chained rows in the table, causing some "cell single block physical reads" to be requested by the database instance, resulting in additional I/O.
E. The table is list partitioned, causing "cell list of blocks physical reads" to be requested by the database instance, resulting in additional I/O.
Question 5
You applied patches to both the storage servers and the database servers in your Exadata X6 Database Machine.
You use Database Replay for a 90-minute workload to verify that there are no performance regressions after applying the patches.
Which three options could you use to immediately measure the performance and to check for possible regressions caused by changes in the storage server software?
A. SQL Access Advisor
B. cellcli list metrichistory
C. cellcli list metriccurrent
D. SQL trace using dbms_monitor
E. cellcli list alerthistory
