OCP MySQL 5.0 Database Administrator

Hello,
I would like to take the exams for the "Oracle Certified Professional, MySQL 5.0 Database Administrator" track.
According to the [Oracle Certification Program website|http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=333&p_org_id=1001&lang=US] , the exam codes listed for this track are CX-310-810 and CX-310-811, when I tried to register for these exams at a Prometric testing center, I was told that the codes are incorrect and that the right exam codes are 1z0-873 and 1z0-874 respectively.
Could anyone clarify this please?
Thanks

Exam numbers have not changed at Prometric. If the test center is telling you that the exams are '1Z0' exams, they are wrong. All Sun exams offered at Prometric are still '310' exams. You can register online for your exam and you will find the correct 310 test numbers or you can call Prometric for assistance in registering. I'm not sure why the test center is giving you that information because test numbers at Prometric have not changed.

Oracle OCP book in 10gR2 database administration

Dear All,
I just finished and paased the OCA in 10gR2 database administration.
Can some body recommend me a good recommended book for me to start the OCP study. I do not need the Orcale pdf's links as i am now using those, need a good text book to read.
Many thanks

The best material you can have for the certification I think is here:
http://www.selftestsoftware.com/dept.aspx?dept%5Fid=6070
I used it for my certification. The pdf is not the key, but the questions you have with.

The course I did to gain OCP certification in Oracle Database 11g does not appear on the courses submission list on the website of pearson vue.

The course I did to gain OCP certification in Oracle Database 11g does not appear on the courses submission list on the website of pearson vue, I sent an email to [email protected] from < email address deleted by moderator >, without an answer in 7 days since 01/28/2015, the email is below, the title of my course is in Portuguese. What should I do in this case ?
Dear Oracle.
I am sending this email because recently I passed in the exam 1Z0-053 Oracle Database 11g: Administration II, which is the last examination necessary to acquire the OCP Certification. However, in the path to the certification I need to prove that I participated in an Oracle Official Training.
Searching for the course on the pearson vue site, I have not found the course name on the list. So I am sending this email with the course information required for certification. I attended to the course in college FIAP (http://www.fiap.com.br/en/conheca-a-fiap/parcerias-estrategicas/), in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, from March/2010 to March/2011. Accessing the link above is possible to verify that the educational institution is an Oracle Partner. The title that I got was "Graduate in Oracle Database Management".
In this email I attached a copy of the FIAP Certified Course (front.jpg certificate, certificate back.jpg). I’m also sending the data from my profile in the pearson vue site (Pearson VUE - My profile.pdf), and my scores in the exams for OCP certification (1Z0-051.pdf, 1Z0-052.pdf, 1Z0-053.pdf ).
If you need any further information just let me know and I will provide.
Please acknowledge this information and grant me the OCP certification (Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certified Professional).
Regards.

Sorry, I expressed myself badly.
When I access http://www.pearsonvue.com/oracle/course/ and start submission process of the course, in the first step “Select the track for which you have completed a certification requirement” I selected the option “Oracle Database 11g Administrator OCP”, in the second step I selected “ILT = Instructor Led Training”, but when I got on the third step “Which course or requirement did you complete?” I have to choose the course name that I did, the course name that I did does not appears in that list, so I do not know which one to select, even having at the end of the form the option “Other ...(Course or requirement is not shown above. Please enter title below.)” the course name I did is in Portuguese/Brazil, the name is “MBA em gestão de banco de dados oracle” in Portuguese, which in English would look like "Graduate in Oracle Database Management".
I sent an email to [email protected] containing the information that I found necessary to obtain certification.
But if I have to do the process in the pearson vue site, should I put the course name in Portuguese or in English ?
Only the email I sent is not enough ?
Thanks for the help, and sorry for my english !

Career from Systems to Database Administrator

Hi all,
I need some career advice. I want to persue my career as an Oracle Database Administrator and I have underwent a basic level of training on Oracle Database administration.However, I have been recently moved to a team which is into -- systems. And my work is mainly related to Active Directory,Exchange and managing servers.
I searched a lot about -- 'starting the career as an Oracle DBA' and found out that people generally start as Systems Admin/Unix Admin/Developer and then switch to DBA Admin. My work experience is less than 1 year. I would like to know-- should I continue with this Systems work and get some experience in System Admin to get into Oracle DBA Admin?
If so,then for how long should I continue with Systems before actually switching over to Database Administration? Moreover, should I do some certifications like MCSE while I am working in Systems? And when and how should I start my preparation for Oracle certifications?
Hope to get inputs from you all.
Thanks in advance

you have to have some earnings, if you are already at another area, you can take adavantage of being already hired somewhere, and you can start studing in parallel so you get acquinted with oracle. First kind of job you may find is a DBA at entry level, which lets you in a pretty difficult position, but there is no other way to start.
Download software and manuals and start practicing as much as you can. A lot of peaple I have seen here at entry level have taken this strategy:
- continue with current job
- start self-studing oracle from manuals
- installed oracle at a local pc/laptop (XE or EE)
- a lot of questions, lack of concepts, problems, bad configuration appear
- they take advantage of this forum to start troubleshooting and continue learning
- when they feel more comfortable with knowledge the make the OCA exam and later on OCP.
- either way, keep studying

How to apply row level security against the database administrator

I would like an advice in applying row level security against the database administrator. We need to prevent DBA from editing data in some table rows or have any indication that data was corrupted.
There is no problem in viewing the data so we considered one way hash function or digital signature which will be stored in the same table, but we see following disadvantages:
HASH - DBA may use the same hash function to update the stored data after he changes the sensitive row.
Digital signature - the is a need to manage and keep the private key in a safe place outside of DB
Is there additional ways to achieve the aim?

Does VPD helps to prevent from DBA to edit/view a data in specific rows?Yes.
If I correctly understand, DBA has full access to security policy used by VPD to control the access and can grant himself privileges that I don't want.You can to define which users can be exempt of the politics, for the context or by Grant EXEMPT.
This includes DBAs.
The simple fact of being DBA doesn't guarantee the exemption.
Everything goes to depend of the VPD config.

Warning in DB13 Check DB "BR0970W Database administration alert"

Hi
We have an alert message in DB13 when we check the checkdb log. Log details are as below
BR0970W Database administration alert - level: WARNING, type: CRITICAL_FILE, object: /oracle/EPR/sapdata10/btabd_11/btabd.data11, value: (max_size) 30466040 KB (> 29439485 KB)
This warning is for all the datafiles; I did just give the sample log above.
Can you please suggest and help resolving this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The issue here is that there is no enough disk space for the datafiles to extend. In this case you can turn off the auto extend or Increase the disk space of sapdata10 or decrease the max_size or you can move some of the datafiles to other directory or filesystem.
You can turn off the auto extend while the database is online. After turning off the auto extend, you need to monitor the datafile/tablespace size periodically.

BR0970W Database administration alert

I get this error in DB13 in CheckDB, .
BR0970W Database administration alert - level: ERROR, type: MISSING_INDEX, object: (table) SAPCRM.VCSMONITOR
Please suggest the fix for this.
Thanks
Shaji

Hi Markus,
Thanks for your reply.
I checked in SE14, the table VCSMONITOR is Transparent table and the Status is "Not Actve" (Exists in the database).
                       List of all indexes (constraints) of the table
                       Index name Unique Short description
0          X      Primary index
                       There are no secondary indexes
Checked for this table/objec in ECC/SRM/BW systems, in SE14 it reports as "object does not exist".
Could you guide me further please.
Regards
Shaji

Oracle 10g Database Administration Workshop I

Dears !
How i may get a soft copy of the Oracle 10g Database Administration Workshop I from the net for downloading in free.
Thanks.

Ashraf,
Besides the fact that the soft copy is and only is to be used by Oracle University trainers and is a properity of Oracle and that's make the use of it outside oracle illegal if you are not a part of OU, I would say one more thing.If you are really on the level to start with oracle database administration learning which seems to be true from the request you made,you wont be able to clear ANY doubt from the book alone. You need some one to have a talk/discussion to clear them and thats why its called ILT,instructor lead training. There is no use at all of the book if you don't get the doubts clear and I can gurantee that by juse reading the book,soft/hard whatever copy,you wont get anything.So it better to come in OU and do a proper course.If you think price is the issue than you can do the same from a partener too where price would be less as well.

One Book or Document for start on Database Administration

Hi
Before anything thanks to everybody that contribute on this forum.
May you introduce me book or document for start on Oracle database administration?
Thanks in advance

Besides the 2-Day dba guide, you should have a read of the Concepts and Administrator guide from the docs at http://tahiti.oracle.com . In addition, read these following books as well,
http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-Oracle-Database-11g-Administration/dp/1590599683/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1331391080&sr=8-1

Java certification & oracle database administrator certification

Hello,
On this page i can see all certification paths. But when i logged into my account, on pearsonvue.com, i issued 'Schedule an exam'. But there i can't find any java certification or oracle database administration certifications. So where can i find all the certifications for scheduling, shown on that page?
Thanks

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!)

Few basic questions about database administration

Hello,
I have a few basic questions about database administration.
1. I switched one of my oracle instances to archivelog mode. I just cannot locate the archive log files on my windows system. The %ora_home%/ora92/database/archive directory is desperately empty...
2.What is the tools01.dbf datafile used for?
3.What is the undotbso1.dbf datafile used for?
Thanks in advance,
Julien.

1. The archive log location needs to be specified in your init.ora file. By default, Oracle will place the archive files in either ORACLE_HOME/dbs or ORACLE_HOME/database.
2. The tools01.dbf file belongs to the tools tablespace which should be set as the default tablespace for system. It primary purpose is to hold Oracle Forms and Reports database objects, however, it should also be used for holding other non sys database objects such as the perfstat (statspack) or other third party database schemas e.g. quests sqllab.
3. undotbs01.dbf file belongs to the undo tablespace.
