NEW QUESTION 53
Examine this IORM plan:
Which two are true concerning this plan?
- A. I/Os from the finance database are guaranteed to get 45% of the I/O bandwidth if the demand is at least 60% of the maximum I/O rate of the cell, but may get 100% of the I/O bandwidth if no other databases are performing I/O to the cell.
- B. If I/Os come from the HR database only, then they may get up to 10% of the I/O bandwidth on the cell.
- C. If I/Os come from the HR database only, then they may get up to 100% of the I/O bandwidth on the cell.
- D. The Finance database can use at least 45%, but never more than 60%, of the total Flash Cache capacity.
- E. I/Os from the finance database are guaranteed to get a minimum of 45% of the I/O bandwidth if the demand exists, and a maximum of 60% of the I/O bandwidth even if no other databases are doing I/O to the cell, and the demand from the finance database exceeds 60% of the maximum I/O rate of the cell.
Answer: B,E
Explanation:
The IORM plan can be configured using the ALTER IORMPLAN command on command-line interface (CellCLI) utility on each Exadata storage cell. It consists of two parameters - dbplan and catplan. While the "dbplan" is used to create the I/O resource directives for the databases, the "catplan" is used to allocate resources by workload category consolidated on the target system.
allocation/share - Specify the resource allocation to a specific database in terms of percentage or shares.
limit - Specify maximum limit of disk utilization for a database.

NEW QUESTION 55
Which three are true concerning Exadata snapshot databases?
- A. They don't support all Exadata features.
- B. They can be created on any type of ASM disk group.
- C. They are supported on non-container databases.
- D. They are integrated with the Multitenant architecture.
- E. They are based on a read-write copy of an existing database.
- F. They can be created only on sparse ASM disk groups.
Answer: C,D,F
Explanation:
A: An Exadata snapshot database can be either a non-container database (non-CDB) or a container database (CDB). Creating an Exadata snapshot database of a CDB enables access to all of the pluggable databases in that container.
C: You can create two types of Exadata snapshots, depending on the current setup of your environment:
* You have a pluggable database (PDB) and want to create a test master from it.
* You have a container database (CDB) and want to create test masters from all its PDBs, or you have a simple non-container database and want to create a test master from it.
D: SPARSE disk group based database snapshots is functionality included in Exadata Storage Software. It requires Exadata Storage Software version 12.1.2.1.0 and Oracle Database 12c version 12.1.0.2 with bundle patch 5 or later. This feature is designed to work on native Exadata ASM storage disk groups. It uses ASM SPARSE grid disk based thin provisioning where snapshot databases created on a SPARSE disk group need only the space for changes plus some metadata, thereby enabling storage efficient snapshot databases.

Which two are true about the allocation of I/O resources by IORM within the CELLSRV process?
- A. Log Writer I/O and Control File I/O are always prioritized over all user I/O.
- B. Database Writer I/O is always prioritized over all user I/O.
- C. If two consumer groups A and B in the PROD database get 10% and 15% respectively, of resource allocation, then the percentage of I/O resource would be the same if they got 20% and 30% respectively, provided that the category plans and interdatabase plans are unchanged, and consumer groups A and B are still mapped to the same category.
- D. If two consumer groups C and D in the PROD database get 10% and 15% respectively, of resource allocation, then the percentage of I/O resource would be the same if they still got 10% and 15% respectively, and were remapped to a different category by the DBA, provided that the category plans and the interdatabase plans are unchanged.
- E. If two consumer groups P and Q in the PROD database get 20% and 10% respectively of resource allocation, then the percentage of I/O resource would be the same if they got 10% and 5% respectively, and the interdatabase plan has changed, provided that the category plan is unchanged, and consumer groups P and Q are still mapped to the same categories.
Answer: A,E

- A. Join processing can be partly offloaded to Exadata Storage Servers.
- B. It is possible to offload single row functions to the Exadata Storage Servers.
- C. A query rewrite may occur to a materialized view stored in Exadata but will never benefit from Smart Scan.
- D. Column projection does not contribute to the performance benefit of Smart Scan.
- E. Join processing can be fully offloaded to Exadata Storage Servers.
- F. A query rewrite may occur to a materialized view stored in Exadata, and it will always benefit from Smart Scan.
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
Explanation/Reference:
D: With Exadata storage, database operations are handled much more efficiently. Queries that perform table scans can be processed within Exadata storage with only the required subset of data returned to the database server. Row filtering, column filtering and some join processing (among other functions) are performed within the Exadata storage cells. When this takes place only the relevant and required data is returned to the database server.
E: With Smart Scan processing, row filtering, column filtering, some join processing, and other functions are performed in the Exadata cells.

NEW QUESTION 67
In which three situations will a Smart Scan occur on a table for which Smart Scan is possible, assuming that nothing in the environment prevents a Smart Scan?
- A. Executing queries in parallel.
- B. Having direct path reads used at execution time.
- C. The ASM diskgroup containing the table's tablespace has a 4 MByte AU size.
- D. An update to the table is made identifying the row to be modified by primary key.
- E. setting _serial_direct_read= true in the session issuing the SQL statements and executing a serial query.
- F. An index range scan occurs for the table.
Answer: A,B,E
Explanation:
Whether you get a direct path read & smart scan, depends on the current buffer cache size, how big segment you're about to scan and how much of that segment is actually cached at the moment. This dynamic decision unfortunately can cause unexpected surprises and variance in your report/batch job runtimes.
To work around these problems and force a direct path read/smart scan, you can either:
D: One of the most common Exadata performance problems is that the direct path reads (and thus also Smart Scans) don't sometimes kick in when running full scans in serial sessions.
Note: Smart Scan is a subset of Cell Offload Processing and is perhaps the feature that is most highly associated with Exadata. Smart Scan allows Oracle databases to push query information down to the storage level, specifically:

Which two statements are true regarding the use of Auto Service Request (ASR) with an X6 Database Machine?
- A. The database server ILOMs must use SMTP over the management network for notifications to ASR Manager.
- B. The database server MS process must have SNMP traps configured to use the management network for notifications to ASR Manager.
- C. The database server ILOMs must have SNMP traps configured to use the management network for notifications to ASR Manager.
- D. The storage server ILOMs must have SNMP traps configured to use the management network for notifications to ASR Manager.
Answer: C,D
Explanation:
Explanation/Reference:
B: Database Server ILOM plug-in
Monitoring databases and their instances, ASM environments, the Grid Infrastructure, and the host software environment are done by Enterprise Manager in the usual way as these are standard targets. But monitoring the hardware for the database servers requires the ILOM plug-in, as there is no Management Server (MS) on the database servers to receive SNMP traps from the ILOM. The plug-in will receive sensor state and availability data from the ILOM including alerts based on pre-set ILOM thresholds.
C: Exadata Storage Server plug-in extends the monitoring of exadata cells in addition to providing a GUI interface. The plug-in uses an SSH connection to the cellmonitor user on the cells and uses list commands only. This is for interactive monitoring. One may also set thresholds using the plug-in which are distinct from any thresholds set using cellcli utility as the celladmin user. For alerts to be sent to the plug-in, SNMP traps are used as follows:
Cell ILOM alerts are sent to the cell Management Server (MS) via an SNMP trap. The MS then send SNMP notifications onward to the plug-in.
Cell alerts flagged by MS itself, such as cell thresholds being exceeded, or ADR software alerts, are sent to the plug-in using SNMP.

Which two statements are true about the use of Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) on an X5 or X6 Database Machine?
- A. IPMI can be used for server configuration and management on each storage server.
- B. IPMI can be used for server configuration and management on each database server.
- C. The Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), which supports IPMI, runs as a multithreaded process on the storage server O/S.
- D. The Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), which supports IPMI, runs as a single-threaded process on the storage server O/S.
Answer: B,D
Explanation:
Explanation/Reference:
A: IPMI - short for Intelligent Platform Management Interface - is an interface standard that allows remote management of a server from another using standardized interface. The servers in the Exadata Database Machine follow that. It's not an Exadata command but rather a general Linux one.
To power on a cell or database server, issue this from another server:
# ipmitool -H prolcel01-ilom -U root chassis power on
To stop a server, use the shutdown command. To stop immediately and keep it down, i.e. not reboot, execute:# shutdown -h -y now
C: Like the KCS interface, the SSIF Interface is only specified as a 'Single Threaded Interface' for standard IPMI commands. That is, the BMC implementation is not expected to process more than one IPMI request at a time. While an implementation is allowed to have a degree of 'command queuing', for standard IPMI messages the SSIF lacks a 'Seq' field that software can use to match up particular instances of requests with responses.

Which three are true concerning Hybrid Columnar Compression (HCC) deployed on Exadata storage?
- A. Rows residing in HCC compressed segments, are always self- contained in a single database block.
- B. By default, decompression is performed by Exadata Storage Servers.
- C. HCC data is never cached in the Exadata Smart Flash Cache.
- D. Rows residing in HCC compressed segments, are always self- contained in a single compression unit.
- E. HCC can be used only when the Exadata Smart Flash Cache is configured in Write-Through mode.
- F. Row-level locks are supported on HCC compressed data.
Answer: B,D,F
Explanation:
C: The decompression process typically takes place on the Oracle Exadata Storage Server in order to maximize performance and offload processing from the database server.
E: A logical construct called the compression unit is used to store a set of hybrid columnar compressed rows.
When data is loaded, column values for a set of rows are grouped together and compressed. After the column data for a set of rows has been compressed, it is stored in a compression unit.
F: What happens when I update a row on compressed tables? What about locks?
* BASIC and OLTP:
the updated row stays in the compressed block 'usual' Oracle's row-level locks
* Hybrid columnar:
Updated row is moved, as in a delete + insert
How to see that? With dbms_rowid package
New row is OLTP compressed if possible
Lock affects the entire CU that contains the row
Note: Oracle's Hybrid Columnar Compression technology is a new method for organizing data within a database block. As the name implies, this technology utilizes a combination of both row and columnar methods for storing data. This hybrid approach achieves the compression benefits of columnar storage, while avoiding the performance shortfalls of a pure columnar format.
Incorrect Answers:
B: Data remains compressed not only on disk, but also remains compressed in the Exadata Smart Flash Cache, on Infiniband, in the database server buffer cache, as well as when doing back-ups or log shipping to Data Guard.

B: With making indexes invisible, we can easily check whether indexes are useful without having to drop (and in case recreate) them actually. While this may be of interest for "ordinary" Oracle Databases already, it is particular a useful feature for Exadata where we expect some conventional indexes to become obsolete after a migration.
C: DISABLE NOVALIDATE RELY means: "I don't want an index and constraint checking to slow down my batch data loading into datawarehouse, but the optimizer can RELY on my data loading routine and assume this constraint is enforced by other mechanism". This information can greatly help optimizer to use correct materialized view when rewriting queries. So if you don't use materialized views for query rewrite then you can put RELY for all your constraints (or NORELY for all your constraints) and forget about it.
NEW QUESTION 74
You wish to determine if the I/O resource management plan that you created has helped improve the performance of OLTP category I/Os on your X6 Exadata Database Machine.
You decide to examine the relevant metrics on all the cells, to see whether the I/O rate has improved for this category compared to last week, and whether waits and wait time have been reduced.
You issue this command on the first cell:
You examine the output from the first cell which contains:
Which two sets of metrics would you use to determine whether the I/O performance has improved for the OLTP category for the duration of the one-hour measurement period?
- A. CT_IO_RQ_SM, CT_IO_RQ_LG, CT_IO_RQ_SM_SEC, and CT_IO_RQ_LG_SEC
- B. CT_IO_RQ_SM_SEC and CT_IO_RQ_LG_SEC
- C. CT_IO_WT_SM, CT_IO_WT_LG, CT_IO_WT_SM_RQ, and CT_IO_WT_LG_RQ
- D. CT_IO_UTIL_SM and CT_IO_UTIL_LG
Answer: C
Explanation:
* CT_IO_RQ_SM
The cumulative number of small I/O requests issued by the category for hard disks. A large value indicates a heavy I/O workload from this category.
* CT_IO_RQ_LG
The cumulative number of large I/O requests issued by the category for hard disks. A large value indicates a heavy I/O workload from this category.
* CT_IO_WT_SM_RQ
The average IORM wait time per request for small I/O requests issued to hard disks by an IORM category.
* CT_IO_WT_LG_RQ
The average IORM wait time per request for large I/O requests issued to hard disks by an IORM category.
Incorrect Answers:
A: CT_IO_RQ_SM_SEC
This metric is derived from CT_IO_RQ_SM. It specifies the rate of small I/O requests issued by the category for hard disks. Its units are number of I/O requests per second. A large value indicates a heavy I/O workload from this category in the past minute.
B: CT_IO_UTIL_SM
The percentage of disk resources utilized by small requests from this category.

NEW QUESTION 75
Which three must be true for a Smart Scan to occur for a table?
- A. The ASM diskgroup containing the table's tablespace must have cell.smart_scan_capable set to true.
- B. The query must be executed in parallel.
- C. The query must be executed serially.
- D. Direct path reads must be used at run time.
- E. cell_offload_processing must be true in sessions issuing SQL statements that access the table.
- F. The ASM diskgroup containing the table's tablespace must have a 4 Mbyte AU size.
Answer: A,D,E
Explanation:
A: pt_param( 'cell_offload_processing' 'TRUE') hint is used to enable the exadata smart scan feature in sql execution process.
D: Direct reads bypass the buffer cache and go directly into the process PGA. Cell offload operations occur for direct reads only.
F: The cell.smart_scan_capable attribute must be set to TRUE.
