OCP 8i DBA Upgrade to OCP 10G DBA - What study material to use

Hi,
As a OCP DBA 8i I want to get certified against 10g. What study materials could you suggest I would use to achieve this?
I've found something from Tanscender (http://www.transcender.com/product.aspx?product%5Fid=Cert%2D1Z0%2D045&)
Could somebody recommend these or is there something better on the market?
Thanks!
Kris

Hello *,
Did nobody do an upgrade of his OCP to 10g. I would really appreciate some insights in how you studied.
Thanks,
Kris

Hi;
I am planing to write OCP. i wanted to write sql and pl/sql papers.
In OCP 10g i dint find a paper for sql or pl/sql like the one in 9i.

I have to write 91 or 10g.when 10g is more superior how will i write 9i.i am in a dilemma . please pull me out of this.

Regarding OCP-10g Exams Certification

Dear Team,
I am planning for OCP-10g Exams (042/043). I have done OCA 9i (DBA Track) last year.
With my current Project recommendation, I am going to attend "Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g: Manage Clusterware and ASM Release 2" training by Oracle University on 11-Apr-2011.
As per compulsory Training Program for OCP-10g, do I need to take any other Training related to Oracle 10g or the above training (11g) will be suffice for OCP-10g Certification (If I complete Exams 042/043)
Kindly update me, so that I can plan accordingly.
Thanks,
Tusar

Thanks Bigdelboy for you reply..
So, what do you suggest regarding the certification which one would be better 10g OCP(1z0-042/043) or directly 11g OCP(1zo-052/053)?
Thanks,
TusarIncreasingly an 11g DBA OCP certification will be preferable to a 10g DBA OCP certification.
Most sites will be looking to upgrade existing 10g databases to 11g databases over the next couple of years, and relatively few sites will have 10g and not be looking to upgrade.
I would say the following reasons are why someone would want to go for 10g DBA OCP rather than 11g DBA OCP.
(1) They have attended training which is a suitable qualifying course for 10g DBA OCP but not for 11g DBA OCP. This can be a very important (big money) reason.
(2) They are very familiar with 1z0-043 topics that are relevant to 10 DBA OCP but less familiar with 1z0-053 topics.
(3) They wish to get both certifications via 1z0-042 - 1z0-043 - 1z0-050 for instance (you could also do 1z0-052+1z0-053 instead of 1z0-050). Obvioulsy this takes time and expense.
In general I suspect study for 1z0-052 might take a number of people a little longer than 1z0-042, and the study for 1z0-053 might take maybe a couple of weeks longer than for 1z0-043.
Overall the choice is yours.

How can i pass OCP 10G?

i passed 1z0-042 exam.
i wanna pass 1z0-043 or ocp 10G.
tell me, how can i pass this exam?

Fahd is right. The art of practicing can only make one pass in exams like this. Problems are now becoming scenarios based, so unless you are familiar with the scenarios, its difficult to pass these exams. Read the book and practice. You are done.

Hello
I passed the 10g OCP exam... (1z0-042 and 1z0-043) However the certificate was not recognized.
My 11g OCP is ok...
Are you sure I do not need to submit the 11g Administration Workshop 2 for 10g OCP cert. Path??
Should I review any step? Can I submit the same course twice for different 11g and 10g certification path??

OCP 10g exam prep class requirment 3000$

After OCA 10g, To appear int OCP 10g exam, requirment is that one should attend the preparation class which cost 3000$, What if one can't afford this, Is there any way to skip this class or attend some other prereq.....

(I would like somebody to correct me if I am wrong in my understanding)
While it is an absolute must that you should attend a hands-on session from Oracle University as a 10g OCP requirement, It is NOT AN absolute must that you shell out $3000 USD. You can pick your course. See below for more details.
http://www.oracle.com/global/us/education/certification/dba10g_ocpcoursereq_approvedlist.html
Here, you will find that, If you are looking for a cost-effective option, and don't care which course you go to, but also satisfy the OCP 10g course requirement, go with
"Oracle Database 10g: SQL Tuning Workshop" which is only $1800 USD ! (Well, only is not a good word to use here....however fits best in this context !!)

Hands on practice for OCP 10g

Hi all… I don’t know whether I am posting this message to a wrong forum.
Though I am not a regular writer here but I used to get knowledge through this forum. Next week I am going to do OCP 10g administration paper II but I have some doubts. I know that only after finishing this exam I will not get certificate until and unless I do the hands on practice course. Do I have to do this course after clearing exam or before? Now I am working in UAE here all educational courses are not affordable so can I do this in India I mean is it possible to write the exam in one country and do the hands on practice in different country? Is there any time limit which I have to finish these hands on practice after clearing this exam? Hope I will get the needful…Thanking you all…
Regards…

You will not get the OCP certification until after you have completed the course requirements. There is form you need to fill out in order to show you have met the requirements.
http://www.oracle.com/global/us/education/certification/handsoncourse_form.html
As far as a time limit, you generally have until the exam is retired in order to meet the requirements. Oracle announces the retirement dates for exams well in advance.
I do not believe Oracle is concerned about where you take the course requirement, they are concerned more with the class an who presents the material.

1Z0-040 ( 9i to10g DBA upgrdation exam ) study material needed....

Hi,
I am a OCP9i DBA. I wish to upgrade to 10g now.
Can any member of the community please provide me with some good study material or dumps ??
Want to upgrade to 10g soon.
Thanks.

Absolutely no dumps or materials are being shared here, moreover sharing of Oracle Materials or any dumps is an illigal.
For your upgrade exam 1z0-040 preparation use the Oracle Student Guides/ILT Materials and Self Test Software and Transcender test engines. Take a look at below url.

Assuming you see the above error message in the alert log file, which was your original post, follow the below steps:
1 Get the 'ospid' value from the error
2. Issue the below command:
SQL> select request_id,ORACLE_PROCESS_ID
2 from fnd_concurrent_requests
3 where request_id = 15598;
3. After obtaining the request_id
4, Query it from the front-end using SYSADMIN responsibility
Hopefully this should get you the respective concurrent report/program.

Challenges while Upgrading from OBIEE 10g to 11g

Hi Gurus,
This is Kiran again. This time I am back with the upgradation issues. We have a client which is currently on OBIEE 10g. All components are already configured in OBIEE 10g with client on RPD, Catalog and implemented all security levels for those.
Now the challenge is to upgrade all activities which we have configured in OBIEE 10g. I have seen lot of stuff online and understood how to upgrade from OBIEE 10g to OBIEE 11g by simply clicking on ua.bat file. But I am unable to understand the process how it is upgrading the securities and environments.
Can anyone help me out by providing necessary stuff I need to take care of before taking the decision to upgrade from OBIEE 10g to 11g.
And also please clear me whether we will have any challenges in upgrading process. If yes, then what kind of challenges we will face and what kind of necessary steps we need to implement to resolve it.
What kind of Architecture we need to follow?
How Schedulers will get upgraded?
Please help me out with your real experiences (Not the online websites). Your response will be highly appreciated and it will help lot of OBIEE professionals who are in the process of upgradation.
Thanks in Advance to all OBIEE GURUS.
Kiran

Hi Valli,
There is really great information available in this link. But I would like to know whether any one faced any issues while upgrading from OBIEE 10g to 11g. Please do share us few issues....

Step by Step,and the upgrade completed successfully.
3.Open the RPD online using the Admintool succefully.
4.But when I Login the BI and view the dashboard with the 10g's user (Administrator),the page appear the error "*Unable to Sign In . An invalid User Name or Password was entered.* "
5.Then I Try to Regenerating User GUIDs
1. Update the FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS parameter in NQSConfig.INI:
a. Open NQSConfig.INI for editing at:
b. ORACLE_INSTANCE/config/OracleBIServerComponent/coreapplication_obisn
c. Locate the FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS parameter and set it to YES, as follows:
d. FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS = YES;
e. Save and close the file.
2. Update the Catalog element in instanceconfig.xml:

So,waiting for the help,thanks!

Hi,
if your using oracle db please make sure your db settings and tnsnames.oRA settings
also try you please try below troubleshooting steps:
1) please check latest error message and find the root cause,
presentation catalog log path:
obiee installed Drive:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\diagnostics\logs\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1\sawlog0.txt file
also check it nqserver.log file
oracle bi server log path ref:
obiee installed Drive:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\diagnostics\logs\OracleBIServerComponent\coreapplication_obis1\nqserver.log
2)can you try to login RPD,EM and console by using your weblogic a/c then try to login with some other user.
if its not working then try to delete that users from catlog and check it Check OPMN services are running state.
e.x:
C:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl startall
opmnctl startall: starting opmn and all managed processes...
C:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl status
Processes in Instance: instance1

coreapplication_obips1 | OracleBIPresentat~ | 5684 | Alive
coreapplication_obis1 | OracleBIServerCom~ | 5232 | Alive
3) Refresh GUIDs and Restart WebLogic and OPMN Services then try it again...still if your getting same issues then try to
check DB(try to login and confirm) and check it RPD --> physical layer connection pool setting and try to
view physical data.
also paste it your latest error log message (nqserver.log and sawlog01.log message) here
