Oracle Database Administration
This test consists of questions related to Oracle database Administration, which are useful for CS and gate aspirants.
Questions
Which of the following is/are the tasks performed in evaluating the database server hardware by the oracle database administrator?
- It checks the available memory to the oracle instances.
- It defines the logical storage structure of the database.
- It also checks, how many disk drives are available to oracle and its databases.
- All of the above
- Both (1) and (3)
Which of the following tasks is/are involved in system monitoring process by the database administrator in oracle database?
- Configuration of the data
- Performance of the data
- Data accessibility
- All of the above
- Both (2) and (3)
Which of the following plannings does a database administrator have during the planning of the database in oracle database?
- To develop a back up and security of the database
- The performance of the database.
- The logical storage structures of the database.
- The efficiency of backup and recovery procedures for the database
- All of the above
What is hybrid mode in the data access step of monitoring process by the database administrator?
- It is a mediator mode between 'monitor-poll' and 'agent-push' mode.
- In this mode, one or more processes in the monitoring system actually poll the system elements in some thread.
- The Hybrid mode is useful when all monitoring mechanisms have not been implemented.
- Both (1) and (2)
- Both (1) and (3)
Which of the following is a false statement about 'Agent push' mode step in system monitoring by the database administrator?
- In this mode, the monitored host is simply pushing data from itself to the system monitoring application.
- This mode can work asynchronously.
- By using this mode, the load of the monitoring system can be reduced.
- By using this mode, the system monitor can do all the polling in whatever simple means are available.
- Both (1) and (4)
Which of the following is/are the disadvantage(s) of 'Agent Push' mode of system monitoring process in database administration?
- The data pushed in the to monitoring application asynchronously.
- In this mode, the monitoring system's load can be reduced to simply accepting and storing data.
- The logic for the polling cycle/options are not centralized at the system monitor.
- All of the above
- Both (2) and (3)
Which of the following is/are true statements about the shutting down with transactional clause in oracle database administration?
- When this clause is applied, no new connection can be allowed further.
- No client can be accessed after the completion of the transactions in the database.
- 'SHUTDOWN TRANSACTIONAL' command use for shutting down with transactional clause.
- No new transactions allowed to be started after the statement is issued.
- All of the above
Which of the following is false in the installation process of the oracle database server by the database administrator?
- The database can be controlled by the central computer after installation.
- The database tools can be executed on client side.
- The database administrator handled the tasks like installation of database application, front end tools with Oracle database server.
- The oracle net components are not necessary to install to execute the database.
- Both (3) and (4)
Which of the following is not a task of a database administrator in oracle database?
- Backing up and restoring the database
- Planning for backup and recovery of database information
- Ensuring compliance with your oracle license agreement
- All of the above
- Both (1) and (3)
Which of the following is/are true about the password file authentication to authenticate an administrative user?
- The password file must be created in password file authentication.
- REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE can be changed without restarting the database.
- In this authentication, the SYSDBA or SYSOPER system privilege grant to the user.
- All of the above
- Both (1) and (3)
Which of the following is/are correct in operating system authentication process in oracle database administration?
- The group OSDBA has a specific name 'dba' for Unix user group.
- For the member of the OSDBA group with the SYSDBA, the system privilege will be SYSDBA while connecting to the database.
- For the member of the SYSOPER group with the SYSDBA, the system privilege will be SYSOPER while connecting to the database.
- The CONNECT command fails in case of no member from the groups SYSDBA or SYSOPER found while connecting to the database.
- All of the above
Which of the following is/are the prerequisites that should meet the criteria while creating a new database by the database administrator?
- There must be sufficient memory available to start the oracle database instance.
- There must be sufficient disk storage space must be available for the planned database.
- The operating system privileges must be associated with a fully operational database administrator.
- All of the above
- Both (2) and (3)
Which of the following is not mandatory while invoking the password file creation command in password file authentication for oracle database administration?
- The name of the password file
- The password
- The maximum number of distinct DBAs and OPERs
- To check whether to overwrite existing file
- Both (3) and (4)
Which of the following is/are true statement(s) about database administrator authentication in oracle database?
- SYSDBA authorizes ALTER DATABASE ARCHIVELOG.
- SYSDBA authorizes DROP DATABASE.
- SYSOPER privilege performs STARTUP and SHUTDOWN operations.
- SYSOPER privilege authorizes ALTER DATABASE ARCHIVELOG.
- All of the above
Which of the following is/are true about the shutting down with the ABORT clause in database administration of oracle database?
- The database can be shutdown instantaneously by this clause.
- After this clause, uncommitted transactions are not rolled back.
- After this clause, the database implicitly disconnects all connected users.
- All of the above
- Both (1) and (3)
