Thanks11g Database Certifications will become increasingly more imortant than 10g Database Certifications.
The simple answer is 11g. However one could write a book on the reasons, and for some 10g would be a better choice. And others will say 10g. And at OCA level there is at least 80% commonality on the exam topics between 10g DBA OCA and 11g DBA OCP. If you are progressing to OCP DBA level then appropriate choice of a hands on course(s) may be a financially influencing factor.

    Oracle prescribes their own training! However one assumes they have some endorsement of Oracle Press Book (ISBN-13: 978-0072257908). (Oracle Database 10g OCP Certification All-In-One Exam Guide (Osborne Oracle Press Series) (Paperback)). Remember the topics have changed slightly since this was printed. There is a Sybex book as well, searching this forum will find it (if you cant find it question yourself if you should be studying for exam), or a reputablable online seller eg amazon.

  • Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I Lab files

    Hi, I was trying to do the practicals for the above workshop, but i cant seem to locate the lab files from the directory/home/oracle/labs.
    This is what happened when i try to run the lab file script.
    [oracle@localhost ~]$ /home/oracle/labs
    [oracle@localhost ~]$ ls
    Desktop labs
    [oracle@localhost ~]$ cd labs
    [oracle@localhost ~]$ ls
    cloneDBCreation.sql lockAccount.sql postScripts.sql
    CloneRmanRestore.sql orcl.sh rmanRestoreDatafiles.sql
    init.ora orcl.sql ultraSearchCfg.sql
    initorclTemp.ora postDBCreation.sql
    I was told to run the script: $ sqlplus dba1/oracle @lab_06_02_4.sql, but apparently there's no lab files for me to run the script.
    Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?
    Many thanks in advance! :D

    Hey all. I'm trying to figure out if the class "Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I Release 2" counts toward OCP certification. I know that "Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I" does from this page: http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=244#5 However, Release 2 is not listed there. It'd be a pretty spectacular waste of $3000 to take a class that doesn't count toward OCP if that's what I'm going for. :) Help appreciated!
    From the UK on the link you refer to I currently see (under 11g OCP section .... ) (There is an OCP and OCM section as well).

    Very occasionally these webpages can unintentionally vary from country to country.
    Sorry ... misunderstood, either the (release 1 or release 2 will count). I am not authorative on this but they are not that cruel. The main general issue is 10g classes typically cannot be used for an 11g OCP. Please note I am not authorative on this but I am as sure as I can be about the principle. Check with your local Oracle University if you need to be authoratively sure.

    so i am interested in these Certification. It is good to get certified. I'm not sure if you are aware of that there's also an OCA PL/SQL Developer. http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=155
    But of cause if you want to learn more DBA stuff then the OCA DBA is a good thing to prepare with.
    For both certifications you need to pass two exams. The first is an SQL exam which is identical for both OCAs. The second one is a PL/SQL exam for the OCA Developer and an Adminsitartion exam for the OCA DBA.

  • Oracle Database 11g Administrator or Oracle PL/SQL and Forms Developer?

    Hi,
    I am thinking about doing an Oracle certification course- Oracle Database 11g Administrator or Oracle PL/SQL and Forms Developer.
    Oracle Database 11g OCP and OCM certification requires 3 mandatory training courses to be completed that costs between $1900 and $3250/each. Oracle PL/SQL certication doesn't require any mandatory training course.
    Which one of these would be a good choice? Please advise.
    Thank you,
    Tracy

    Regardless of which path you want to take, in order to get the OCP certification in either the DBA or PL/SQL developer track, you must first obtain the respective OCA certification for that track. I'm assuming that since you are still undecided in which path to take that you haven't started working on either yet. If you look at the pages for the OCA DBA and OCA PL/SQL Developer certs and what is required for each, you'll see that the first block of tests for either certification (the SQL based exams) has the same options (1Z0-007, 1Z0-047, 1Z0-051) and passing one of those SQL based exams gives credit towards obtaining both OCA certifications. That might be a good place to start.
    Doing one of these tests first might give you some extra time to decide which track you want to pursue. But as Justin said, it really depends on what you do (or plan on doing) in your career as to which path might be more beneficial for you.
    As for the OCM level stuff, I wouldn't even think about it until you get the OCP. One step at a time... Same with OCP before OCA. That being said, my suggestions are just that, suggestions. You're free to take any exams/courses in any order, but you won't be able to obtain the certs until you have completed the requirements for each.

  • I am now "Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certified Associate"

    Hi
    after very hard work I am now Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certified Associate. I attended courses (Admin I and SQL Fundamentals) 3 years ago. My Oracle knowhow is only the scope OCA 11g and have no Java know-how.
    What should I do next?
    - 1Z0-047 Oracle Database SQL Certified Expert
    or
    - 1Z0-803 Java SE 7 Programmer I
    what is simpler?

    I am searching for an easy winI'm not a big proponent of 'easy'. I'm much more a fan of 'worthwhile'. Determining what is 'easy' for you is not easy. It's hard enough figuring out what is easy for me. That said, a fast and dirty rule of thumb for comparing Oracle certifications is:
    Easiest
    OCA -- Broad range of topics -- shallow depth
    OIS -- Narrow range of topics -- moderate depth (Implementation Specialist -- dunno if they really have an accepted acronym)
    OCP -- Broad range of topics -- moderate depth
    OCE -- Narrow range of topics -- considerable depth
    OCM -- Whole different ballgame -- perform or fail
    Hardest
    Since you are asking about an OCA exam vs an OCE exam, the basic answer is going to be that the OCA exam is easier. That doesn't take into account you. For all I know, you might be mentally allergic to Java and learning it may be the hardest thing you've ever done.

  • Oracle Database 10g: Administration Workshop I Part 1 CD

    On the first learning CD for Database 10g Administration, there is an incorrectly displayed question.
    Oracle Database 10g Workshop -> Installing an Oracle Database -> Installation Using OUI -> Page 21
    Question is: To Locally manage the databases stored on one or multiple computers, you select:
    A. the Configure the Database with Enterprise Manager check box on the Management Options page.
    B. etc.
    C. etc.
    D. the Raw Devices option button on the Store Options page.
    When the correct answer (A) is selected, the dialogue displayed states:
    'That is incorrect. The Raw Devices option is used to manage the storage devices outside the OS file system. Try again'
    As if D was selected instead of A. If D is selected, the message is:
    That is correct. The Configure the Database with Enterprise Manager option enables you to locally manage the databases stored in one or multiple computers.
    It seems as though the links next to question A and D are flipped.

    Hello,
    I have used it and couple of others workshop in CD format and it is worth buying. Make sure you have a database setup where you can play all the excercise available in workshop. Beside that I have also attended instructer led training, though self-study course material pretty much same but you can't replace an experienced instructor and his insights. I recommend if you can at least one instrcuter led training beside your self-study course it will be really helpful to you.

  • Information on Oracle Database 10g Administrator

    Hi,
    I have recently written OCA PL/SQL Developer exams (1Z0-007 and 1Z0-147) and cleared both the exams successfully.
    Now i wan to focus on DBA side, so i am planning to write Oracle Database 10g Administrator Certified Associate exams.
    After going through oraclle univeristy site for exam codes, i found that i need to clear 1Z0-007(ifi opt for it) in level-1.
    Since ive already given 1Z0-007 for PL/SQL Developer, so do i need to give the exam once again for Oracle Database 10g Administrator???
    Thanks in advance.

    Since ive already given 1Z0-007 for PL/SQL Developer, so do i need to give the exam once again for Oracle Database 10g Administrator???No. The one pass if good for both OCA tracks, so you only now need to pass 1z0-042 for your DBA OCA as you already have a 1z0-007 pass.
    (You would not be able to take it twice if you wanted too, as a successfully passed exam may not be retaken).

    Thanks1) You need to drill down from that link to find individual exams ... eg 1z0-051, 1z0-052, etc ... for instance via:
    http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=198&p_org_id=&lang=
    http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_052
    2) You may need to register on Pearson VUE particularly for Oracle.
    (Prometric works much on on a one registration does all, Pearson VUe requires registration for each vendor, in general as far as I remember). But I was able to use my LPIC registered Pearson VUE for Oracle
    To begin with ensure you go via http://www.pearsonvue.com/oracle/
    3) Java exams, having come from Sun stewardship, are currently via Prometric.
    See the Sun Transition FAQ (which is now VERY hard to locate unless you know what you are looking for!)

  • Running Oracle database 10g and 11g on same 5 RAC nodes

    Hello Gurus,
    Could any body throw light if I can install and sucessfully run Oracle database 10g and 11g on the same Oracle RAC installation setup.My setup is below
    Number of nodes-5
    OS- windows 2003 or RHEL5
    storage- DELL EMC SAN
    Clusterware- oracle version11g
    File system-Automatic storage management(ASM)
    After I successfully setup clusterware,ASM on the nodes,I would want to install 11g database on all 5 nodes .
    Then Install 10g database on only 3 of the nodes using the same clusterware.
    What are your views on the same.
    Also FYI... as per metalink node 220970.1(RAC: Frequently Asked Questions) one can do such a setup.
    what iam looking for is practical experience if anyone has implemented this in production system,if yes any issues faced and how tough it is to support.
    Thanks,
    Imtiyaz

    You could run an 11g database and 10g database on the same cluster as long as you use Clusterware 11g.
    The administration aspect will drastically change according to the platform you run on. As of now, it appears you don't know whether it will be Linux or Windows.
    It would be practical to support the same database release.
