Oracle 10g Administration workshop I course

I am wondering if anyone has studied Oracle 10g Administration workshop I course via self study?
My company is willing to sponsor me for Oracle Database Administration courses. I have a got a option to attend the Oracle hand on training courses or go for Oracle self study courses.
I have done OCA PL/SQL (9i) Certification in the past and at the moment I am not thinking about doing any DBA level certification.
(Administration workshop I & II (instructor lead) course is one of the OCP certification requirement)
What are the pros and cons of Self Study course and how is that different to instructor lead course?
Is there any duration limit on self study course?
Should i go for 10g course or 11g? We mostly use 10g.

There are a few things available from Oracle, some of which are eligible as training requirement for DBA Certification:
- Traditional Oracle Classroom - Eligible for satsifisfying the training requirement
- Oracle Classroom presented online in real time (LVC) - Eligible for satsifisfying the training requirement ( Quite new ... about 2 years)
- Oracle Self Study CD ROM - This does NOT satisfy the training requirement. (SSCDs do not count towards your course requirements for certification and should be used as a study aid only.)
- Training on Demand (This is a new training format. The course must be listed in the list of approved courses http://bit.ly/wyajDv.)
Ref: {message:id=10215249}
My personal view would be to go for 11g. It generally suspersets 10g and gets you more future orientated. But that might not be the best decision for everyone. It is also useful to have 11g training which can be used against 10g or 11g DBA certification.

  • Oracle 10g - Introduction to SQL  course question

    Two years ago I completed the Oracle 9i - Introduction to SQL course. An complete the #1Z0-007 exam and pass with almost 100%.
    I notice that Oracle 10g - Introduction to SQL courses are now being offer. If I have already done the Oracle 9i course and have been using SQL for the pass two years. Is doing the Oracle 10g - Introduction to SQL worthwhile ?
    Will I learn anything new or is the course almost the same ?
    Thanks
    Brendon

    Brendon,
    Almost certainly not useful. I'd compare the contents of the course you did with the features that have been introduced into Oracle since the version that the course was based on, and try to find some material on these features.
    Cheerio,

  • Oracle 10g administrator guide??

    Plissss, somebody knows where can I find an OracleAS 10g administrator, configurator and tunning guide??? (also with High availability options).
    It seems to be hidden because in several sites refer to it but always de links return 404 - Error....
    Also would be great an quick and basic application deployment guide I have found some references but they seems to refer using oracle developer products. I would need a guide to tell me were I should deploy just an ear generted with any standard tool....

  • 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.

  • Study material for Oracle 10g OCA certification

    Hi every one.
    My Name is Ash living in Edmonton Canada.
    Currently, I am trying to prepare to take the OCA exam. My study material is "OCA 10g Administration 1 Study Guide by Chip DaWes, Bob Bryta, Joseph C.Johnson, Mathew Welshan". I am not sure if this is the right study material. Could any body please give me a feed back, how I can prepare for the exam? Also I would to know if there a local oracle group in Edmonton vicinity

    Hello Ash,
    I am also enrolled in an OCA course in the beginning of June 08, and I have used that, the Oracle Database 10g : Administration Workshop 1, and purchased the pass4sure CD.
    I recommend against the pass4sure, only because the PDF's had some sort of security lock, and I was unable to open them, even though I legitimately purchased the product.
    Good luck!
    John

  • Which release of Administration Workshop I should I chose to pass 1z0-042?

    Hello!
    I want to take the 1z0-042 exam,and OTN say that I can prepare for it by myself through "Oracle Database 10g: Administration Workshop I ",but I find a lot releases of Administration Workshops as below:
    Oracle Database 10g R2: Administration Workshop I D17090GC30 (Spiral-bound) Publisher: Oracle University (2004) ASIN: B000T6M9X6
    Oracle University Oracle Database 10g R2: Administration Workshop I VOLUME 1 ONLY D17090GC30 (Spiral-bound) Publisher: Oracle University (2004)
    ASIN: B000T6KJCY
    Oracle Database 10g Administration Workshop I D17090GC30 Edition 1 (2004)
    D339126 - Oracle Database 10g: Administration Workshop I (Vol. 1)
    D339127 - Oracle Database 10g: Administration Workshop I (Vol. 2)
    So,which one should I choose?Or if you have got a right release of it,it's very kind of you to send it to my EMail [email protected]
    Thank you very much!

    Oracle Database 10g R2: Administration Workshop I
    - The course is D17090
    - The language code is GC (General Curriculum/English)
    - The revision is '30' (major release 3, minor release/patch 0)
    The course is an instructor-led week long course. It has labs based on a specific setup and uses 2 spiral bound books, Volume 1 and Volume 2
    The books are copyright by Oracle and electronic distribution is illegal.
    as
    The exam takes information from the course material found in both volumes, as well as material from successful completion of the labs. Reading from the student books may not be sufficient to pass the exam.
    A better way to pass the exam is to
    a) take the course, either in class or self study CD; or
    b) chose one of the related exam-cram books such those listed here

  • Apply 5699495 w/ Silent installation Oracle 10g client

    Good Afternoon,
    I have my silent installation of Oracle 10g Administrator Installation working great w/ response file, now I am having an issue with integrating this patch (5699495) into the initial install. I read the README file but it says to just drop the files in the appropriate folder, I want to do it during the install with no user interaction
    Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    I'd suggest creating a batch file to do the unzip and copy operations.
    In the batch file you can call the install first and then do the patch. This way anyone who needs to do the install can just double-click the batch file.
    We do a similar thing with an install and then creating a TNS_ADMIN area outside the ORACLE_HOME

  • 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.
    Aman....

  • 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.

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).

    The course you mention appears to me to be second from bottom.
    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.

    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.
