Your multitenant container database has three pluggable databases (PDBs): PDB1, PDB2, and PDB3.
Which two RMAN commands may be; used to back up only the PDB1 pluggable database?
A.
BACKUP PLUGGABLE DATABASE PDB1 while connected to the root container
B.
BACKUP PLUGGABLE DATABASE PDB1 while connected to the PDB1 container
C.
BACKUP DATABASE while connected to the PDB1 container
D.
BACKUP DATABASE while connected to the boot container
E.
BACKUP PLUGGABLE database PDB1 while connected to PDB2
Explanation:
To perform operations on a single PDB, you can connect as target either to the root or directly
to the PDB.
* (A) If you connect to the root, you must use the PLUGGABLE DATABASE syntax in your RMAN
commands. For example, to back up a PDB, you use the BACKUP PLUGGABLE DATABASE command.
* (C)If instead you connect directly to a PDB, you can use the same commands that you would use when
connecting to a non-CDB. For example, to back up a PDB, you would use the BACKUP DATABASE
command.
