OCP Exam 1Z0-040: Installation Performance

OCP People,
I'm looking at topic areas for the OCP Exam 1Z0-040.
I'm curious about this topic:
"Installation Performance Enhancements"
What should I know about it?
Do many Oracle DBAs think that Oracle 8i,9i installation is too slow?
Perhaps 10g installation is faster?
When I see the term "Performance Enhancements", assuming I'm not reading a spam,
I expect a discussion about speed.
Perhaps there is more to it?
Maybe aside from duration, the 10g install is less likely to error out
or provide a better installation experience?
This could actually be a broad topic. I'm not sure what parts of it
the author of OCP Exam 1Z0-040 wants me to focus upon.
Thoughts anyone?
-Owen

There are improvements with the OUI installation process. Can you list these? Do you know what is different between the 9i and 10g install screens? Have you looked at the New Features manual?

  • Completed OCA , need study material for OCP exam 1Z0-141

    Hi,
    As the thread title says.. I have completed my OCA certification for PL/SQL Developer.
    Now i am preparing for 1Z0-141 ( Oracle 9i Forms Developer: Build Internet Applications), the problem here is that i couldn't find a book that will help me. Also can you please provide the link to the release which i should download so that i can practise.
    Also, do i need to complete any Hands on training for completing the OCP Developer ( Forms ) track, because i dont see anything regarding that published on the certification path ?
    Any help in this regard would be appriciated..
    Thanks & Regards

    The following book is for 1z0-131/1z0-132 but is still probablly useful. However it is difficult and expensive to get hold of and any second hand editions may be without the cdrom:
    Oracle Certified Professional: Building Internet Applications I & II Exam Guide: ISBN: 9780072193336
    Also:
    (Reference: Oracle Certification Program - Oracle Forms: Build Internet Applications (1z0-141) - gives details on exam topics, materials and additional resources)
    [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_141]
    -From This I believe the current oracle recommended training course is :
    -- Oracle Forms Developer 10g: Build Internet Applications
    -- I had a quick glance and could not seem to see a self study kit for this course:

    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.

    HarshI always think it is useful to be precise about these things:
    You can take the exam +1Z0-054 11g Performance Tuning+ whenever you like. Simply book it, turn up and take it.
    In the event you pass you've passed the exam!!! If you don't it is an expensive re-take.
    However .....
    While you;ve passed the exam you would not be a 'Oracle Database 11g Performance Tuning Certified Expert ' until Oracle confirms to you that certification, and Oracle you have identified all the requriements wht Oracle have detailed here:-
    http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=287
    This indicates one of two additional pre-requisites to the exam pass:-
    : Either (1) : A prior DBA 11g Certification.
    : Or (2): Verification of your attendance to the Oracle Univerisity Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning training course.
    Above you have sort of indicated the 11g DBA OCP credential requirements (omitting the mandatory training requirement) ( http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=198)
    The journey to 'Oracle Database 11g Performance Tuning Certified Expert ' is a long one, and i suggest most people should look at the basics first. Begin by becoming familiar with http://certification.oracle.com.
    If you wish to continue I would consider focusing on 1z0-051 as a first exam or possilby attempting to find suitable workforce development programme training (assuming oracle univerisity is too expensive). Please be aware IMHO Oracle are not responsible for WDP institutes and I suspect some are very bad.

  • Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning exam 1Z0-054

    Hi,
    I want to take the certification Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning exam 1Z0-054 and want to write the exam.
    To earn the OCE credentials, I know that we need to take training from Oracle University. I am not an OCP currently.
    Can I write the exam now and later take the course to meet the certification requirements? I know it is not the right way, but I can not pay $3000 for the course as of now. I can write the exam through self study. I want to check if I can take the exam now and later take the course.
    Is it mandatory to take the course before taking the exam?
    Thanks,
    naveen.

    naveen.Indeed you can take the exam now, and subsequently earn the 11g PERFTUNE OCE credential when you either:
    1) complete, submit and get verified the OU authorised 11g perftune course (possible but seems a little cart before horse).
    or
    2) Become 11g DBA OCP.

  • 12c ocp upgrade exam 1z0-060

    Hi all,
    currently 12c ocp upgrade exam (1z0-060) is validated against Oracle Database 12.1.0.1.0.
    any idea when its going to validate against 12.1.0.2 or with some new topics as going to sit in this exam .
    So to avoid any surprise near to exam date ,i would like to know is this exam stay some more time with this release or going to change soon with some more topics.
    Thanks
    kuljeet

    I understand changes on production exams cannot be developed so easy, but regarding to this new release it could be good to analyze if could be interesting update the exam.
    "Interesting' or not, making topic changes to production exams is a huge amount of work... and not just for Oracle University. When topic changes are made, such as happened with the 1Z0-047 exam on September 15th or last year, it immediately obsoletes all of the test preparation material in existence for that exam, whether it be books, study guides, or practice exams. People making use of these legacy materials are likely to be caught off guard when taking the exam and they determine that they are not prepared for the newly-added topics. It just doesn't make sense unless the changes that were made are extremely significant.  With a 'New Features' exam, it is difficult to imagine any new feature being added in a patch release that is so significant that it warrants such handling.
    Any time a new release or patch comes out, OU does go through the exam to verify the existing questions still make sense.  I don't know to what level they make changes at this point. However, I am fairly certain that if, for example, in version 12.1.0.1 there was a given restriction and in 12.1.0.2 that restriction was removed... any questions on the exam that referred to the changed restriction would either be removed or altered such that the correct answer was not version-dependent.

    Plz its very urgent....The nature of your posts impllies already have a 9i DBA OCP. Then I hope you realise it is very difficult for me to see how you would not realise any link or material you are sent is :-
    1) A link to material in breach of copyright ...
    2) Material in breach of copyright
    3) unauthorized learning material.
    4) Relatively limited or useless.
    About the only useful link you could be sent is ones into the Oracle Website or authorized training material. But you should, as a DBA, know these already!
    Overall .... there is a high chance of an NDA breach with any answers to post ... with possible subsequent loss of existing certification.
    - There is a Sybex book ... ISBN-13: 978-0782143553 or equivalent ... that may be helpful ... but the exam topics may have been updated since.

  • 10G exam 1z0-042 Cleared~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Hi
    10G 1Z0-042 CLEARED~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    i have successfully cleared oracle 10G 1z0-042 exam.
    i got 92% marks 69/75.
    one more to go for completing 10g ocp.
    exam is very easy if u r fully prepared and have some real exp as a oracle dba(1-2 yr).
    without exp this exam is difficult because its not like as 8i or 9i in which u read the oracle univ books and cleared the exam.
    in 10g some question is not directly ask from oracle univ book.
    i have 3 yr of exp and i study from 3 months for this exam
    Oracle univ book is good for this exam.
    if u r preparing from this book then u will get 40-45 question from it out of 85.
    rest question need some more idea of oracle.coz these question need real exp.
    Thanks and Regards

    Muhammad AliOkay I've haven't done 1z0-045 ... but I at one point I was considering 1z0-050 so I'm willing to share my views on an upgrade exam and exams in general.

    It depends on your definition of read the topics. If you mean literally just read the topics then that will result in a failure. If you mean study research practice and fully understand the topics that should lead to a pass.
    Bear in mind that Oracle would expect a competent 8i DBA attending the 5 day training course Oracle Database 10g: New Features for Oracle8i DBAs [http://education.oracle.com/web_prod-plq-dad/plsql/show_desc.redirect?dc=D17389GC10&p_org_id=&lang=&source_call=] to be able pass the exam with perhaps 2 to 4 weeks further study, revision and practice.
    Interestingly this particular exam has a relatively high pass mark (73%) ... one implication of that is that it is prudent to be comfortable with all topics.
    Generally an upgrade exam will cover topics beyond that of the straight OCA/OCP exams. The questions will obviously be at OCP level.
    It is possilble the Sybex book Oracle 10g New Features for Administrators Study Guide (Certification Study Guide) ISBN-13: 978-0782143553 which although for 1z0-040 may have some relevance for some of your topics. If you choose to purchase it that is your choice. (It seems to have good amazon reviews ... though all of these books can contain errors, it may or may not be updated for 10gR2, and some Sybex Oracle books are sometimes OTT in some areas IMHO, but that wouldn't stop me using one).

  • Which book topics to follow for exam 1Z0-007? Sybex or Oracle press?

    Hi, I am studying following both books for exam 1Z0-007 but sybex book by Chip Dawes covers more topics then oracle book. I am wondering if i still need to study those topics in sybex book which are not covered in oracle press book? For example DML Locks have been discussed in detail in sybex book as compare to oracle book and few topics are missing in oracle press and don't know if there will be any question in the exam from those topics?
    1) OCP Introduction to Oracle9i: SQL Exam Guide by Jason Couchman
    2) OCA/OCP: Introduction to Oracle9i SQL Study Guide by Chip Dawes, Biju Thomas
    Can anyone pls advise? Also i like to know if SelfTest software covers same questions which are in sybex and oracke press book? Because SelfTest software has same questions for microsoft exams which are already in the cd of microsoft official press books.

    The proper method is to look at the exam topics on [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_org_id=1001&lang=US&p_exam_id=1Z0_007] which is authorative.
    either the Sybex or Oracle Press book is authorative, and sometimes exam changes after these are printed (with revision from 9iR1 to9iR2 for example).
    In general you should probably have enough material in the two books given for this exam. Its probably cheaper to take the exam itself rather than buy additional Selftest questions. Your time may well be better spent practicing the things you have trouble with. Also be aware these books can have errors. And learn whichever is in either book even if it isnt examined. Its good for you!
