You must apply patches and patch bundles in a rolling fashion, if possible, on the components of your Exadata
X6 Database Machine.
You use RAC for your databases and also use Data Guard, having standby databases on another Database
Machine.
You want to have scripts that contain the appropriate commands to patch your environment.
Your patch bundle is one the first database server and is located at/uo1/stage.
You have downloaded the oplan utility to the first database server and run:
$ORACLE_HOME/oplan/oplan generateApplySteps /u01/stage
Which two statements are true concerning the type of instructions oplan will generate?
A.
Instructions for patching the Grid Infrastructure home on the primary location
B.
Instructions for patching the Data Guard environment on the standby location
C.
Instructions for patching the RAC Oracle Home on the primary location
D.
Instructions for patching only storage servers
E.
Instructions for patching all components on the Database Machine
Explanation:
Oplan generates instructions for all of the nodes in the cluster.
Note:
Oplan is a utility that facilitates you with the application of bundle patches on Exadata compute nodes via
Opatch. This new utility helps you with the patch process by generating step-by-step instructions telling you how to apply a bundle patch in your environment.
Exadata is much more than a “database-in-a-box.” It is a set of compute nodes (think RAC node servers)combined with ultra-fast infiniband (…and 10GB ethernet, and multiple 1GB ethernet) and storage nodes.
Incorrect Answers:
B: There is no support for Oracle DataGuard
