Oracle Linux Administrator Certified Associate: 1Z0-402 and 1Z0-403

Hi
there is a study guide available soon Oracle Enterprise Linux Administrator Certified Associate Exam Guide (Exams 1z0-402 and 1z0-403), that why I will take exam ;-)

Unfortunately LPIC expires after 5 years unless you take a higher level or retake same level .....
RHCT similarly.
The Oracle exam certification relates to OEL/RHEL 4 ... which is a bit oldhat rather than redht nowadays. The advantage for you is it is an easy win, the disadavantage is it doen't really say much mor eabout yourself. RHSA on RHEL 6 might suit and say more .... but might be harder to gain. Any it wouldn't help any Oracle Partnership points iof that was important. However as pointed out you should be able to waiver 1z0-402

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 Linux 6.1 asm packages - oracleasm and oracleasmlib for OEL 6.1 ???

Hello everyone
I am not ULN subscriber, I am trying to learn Oracle ASM/RAC at work.
I am running OEL 6.1 (uname -rm output is: 2.6.32-100.34.1.el6uek.x86_64)
I am looking for two ASM support libraries which are compatible with above Oracle Linux 6.1 X64
Specifically this article refers to 2 packages I need for ASM support:
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g/OracleDB11gR2RACInstallationOnOEL5UsingVirtualBox.php
•oracleasmlib-2.0.4-1.el5.x86_64.rpm -- I need this one
•oracleasm-support-2.1.3-1.el5.x86_64.rpm -- this package is now already installed on OEL 6.1 so I dont need this one for OEL 6.1
•oracleasm-2.6.18-164.el5-2.0.5-1.el5.x86_64.rpm -- I need this one
Can anyone direct me to a download link for the above two packages? Even if its from RHEL6.1 as long as it works?
Or does it mean that I must pay Oracle in order to be able to get these packages in order to learn ASM at home ??
Why would Oracle allow us to use their RDBMS/RAC/ASM/Linux software at home learning for free and not supply the above two packages??
thanks

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/linux/downloads/rhel5-084877.html
Keep in mind that Database is NOT certified on Oracle Linux 6 anyway, so it is challenging to install. The very article you link to uses Oracle Linux 5. It also links to these very same RPMs. If you follow the article more carefully, you won't have any issues.

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 Linux 6 Certified Implementation Specialist Exam 1Z1-460

Reading though the syllabus for this exam, I can across the following:
- Verify proper creation of vmcore by kdump using crash+D23
Anybody know how to do this or is it some sort of typo?

Looks like a typo to me, probably means crash utility.
The deployment guide has further info, chapter 25: The kdump Crash Recovery Service

Reference book for Oracle Linux exam 1Z0-402

Hi gurus!
Can you please give me useful reference books which cover the al topics for Oracle Linux Exam 1Z0-402 preparation?
Thanks
Mokarem

Can you please give me useful reference books which cover the al topics for Oracle Linux Exam 1Z0-402 preparation?By itself, 1Z0-402 does not grant any certification. Presumably you are going for Oracle Linux Administrator Certified Associate. That certification path also requires passing 1Z0-403. However, you can skip 1Z0-402 if you already have one of several other industry Linux certifications (LPI, Linux+, Ubuntu, Red Hat, or Novell). My recommendation would be to go for one of these certifications, then skip straight to the 1Z0-403 exam. I suggest that for several reasons:
1. There is a lot more study resources for exams like CompTIAs Linux+ available.
2. The other Linux certifications are better known than Oracle's.
3. Since 1Z0-402 by itself does not grant a certification, going this route gets you two certifications for the price of one.

Oracle Linux Certification(1Z0-403)

Hello, dear professionals,
Yesterday I passed exam 1Z0-403, with mark 92%, is there any certificate available for this exam?
Thank you in advance.

If you have also passed the 1z0-042 exam (Oracle Linux Fundamentals) or any other certification LPI, Linux+, Ubuntu, Red Hat, or Novell, you will recieve the Oracle Linux Administrator Certified Associate certification.
There is more information in this page: http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=149
If you work for an Oracle Partner Company you will also recieve the OPN Certified Specialist designation.

There is still time to earn your Oracle Linux 6 OCP certification at a great discount.

Beta testing continues for the Oracle Linux 6 Advanced System Administration exam (1Z1-105) at the significantly discounted price of $50 USD. Passing this exam results in the Oracle Certified Professional, Oracle Linux 6 System Administrator certification.

You do need to have
Oracle Certified Associate, Oracle Linux 5 and 6 System Administrator or
Oracle Linux Administrator Certified Associate (retired)
as well of course!
but if necessary you can pass 1z0-100 after 1z1-105 and you will still be awarded OL6 OCP!

Prepare for 1z0-402 and 1z0-403 with CentOS?

Hi
Can I prepare for 1z0-402 and 1z0-403 (Oracle Enterprise Linux Administrator Certified Associate) with CentOS? Because there are no free security updates for Oracle Linux.

This is RHEL/OEL 4 based, so centos or OEL or RHEL could be used as appropriate. They important thing to note is the '4' .. which is now a little ancient ... some things a little different in '5' and '6'. The exam could usefully do with a makeover IMHO.

Books/sites for Certified Associate (exam 1Z0-042)?

What books are recommended in order to pass exam 1Z0-042 (Oracle Database 10g Administrator Certified Associate)? Is there any one book that I can study that will help me pass this test?
I've read that you should have some "hands-on" experience to pass the test. I have software development experience with T-SQL (sql server). But I've rarely done anything with Oracle specifically (although I've worked with pl/sql).
Thanks.

Download the Database and install it and your on the first step of going through exam topics
Get time to read the Concepts guide, and maybe Admin and Performance guides from the docu library.

Your Oracle Linux system should be configured to automatically install packages either from the Unbreakable Linux Network or public-yum.oracle.com. You might want to ask your Linux sysadmin for assistance if your servers aren't already configured for updates.
You can also check Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of the Oracle Linux Administrator's Guide for more details on using ULN or public-yum: Oracle® Linux (it's for OL6 but the concepts are the same for OL5).

Dashboard Console not working - opesntack on Oracle Linux 6.6

I have installed openstack using the instructions at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/openstack/linux/documentation/oracle-openstack-user-guide-2296176.pdf
I have a Oracle Linux 6.6 as the controller and two nodes of Oracle VM 3.3.2 as compute nodes. I managed to get an instance up and running but not sure how to connect to those instances. When I navigate to the console tab of the instance vnc connects successfully the be screen is blank and I think its not accepting any keyboard inputs as well.
How do I get the console to work from the dashboard (or connect via a vnc viewer)? Alternately I have used DHCP in the instance and know the private IP of the instance (192.168.1.100), how do I ssh to the instance?
Amish.

Hi Amish,
I saw your comment in other thread and I'll try to answer your questions in the best way I can - but this is huge topic. Please keep in mind that I'm also newbie in this area too and I've encountered many problems getting basic OpenStack installation working, like you. Some of them are still not solved for me either. I also did not get any help here
Networking in OpenStack is IMO difficult to understand, especially for people like me who are accustom with traditional approach. So this is how I understand it now:
Networking can be purely software driven and in this case it is carried out by openvswitch (http://openvswitch.org - better get accustom with it if you are not yet). Simple linux bridge - utilized by Oracle VM - is not used by OpenStack. Also there can be hardware plugins which can move some of network features to hardware - but I have no experience in this area.
There are two types of networks you can create in OpenStack: provider and tenant one:
Provider networks (also called flat networks) are equivalent of what you set in Oracle VM Manager and in typical (old fashioned) IT world. These are networks which in OpenStack are defined by cloud administrator (You) and bound to existing physical network which are already set by network administrator. For example you have couple of ports on your servers connected to LAN switches, some of them are in access mode some are trunks of specific VLANs. Also routers and other network services are managed outside of your cloud.
You need to define these networks in OpenStack before any user can connect their VMs to them. The most important part is that can do this from the GUI .
On the other hand there are so called: tenant networks. These are networks which are under cloud user administration. These are like cloud private networks (if you know Ops Center or Exalogic there is similar notion there) - which are created on-demand by your users. You as cloud administrator only create some limits (quotas) regarding how many such networks can be created by user. But obviously you - as cloud administrator - also need to define mechanisms which allow such networks be created on demand. This also has to be done from command line by editing some files - before users can create tenant networks.
The mechanism I'm talking about can be: VLAN, VxLAN, GRE.
First one is the only one currently supported by Oracle and it is quite simple: you, in cooperation with your network administrator reserve range (or set) of traditional VLANs and configure them on network switches where your servers are connected (I mean server ports which you dedicate for tenant networks - not all because you need other network for management, etc). Then you define this set in some OpenStack files to let it manage them on its own. For example: you have got 20 VLANs from network department for exclusive use for your cloud. Nobody knows what each VLAN will be used for yet. This will be allocated by cloud users on-demand. Openstack will just allocate VLAN upon user request and will not allow other users to create their private networks on the same VLAN.
Better approach is to use VxLAN which is tunneling mechanism. You don't need pool of VLANs in this case but you just set tunneling rules and then OpenStack creates private networks using secure tunnels over L3 network which you define first. VxLAN is standard, you can read about it and it is used by OpenStack for Solaris. Unfortunately this did not work for me and Release Notes from Oracle OpenStack for Linux says that it is not supported yet.
There is also GRE - which is also tunneling and is similar to VxLAN - but it did not work for me either.
Where it is all configured? Basic setup is created by packstack using CONFIG_NEUTRON_OVS_* variables. However I used packstack only for installation and then I modified configuration files on all nodes. The most important file where configuration is kept is: /etc/neutron/plugin.ini. In this files you set framework on which provider and tenant networks are build. The most important section is [OVS], for example:
[OVS]
enant_network_type=vlan
enable_tunneling=false
integration_bridge=br-int
bridge_mappings=physnet1:br-eth3
network_vlan_ranges=physnet1:2032:2032,physnet1:3010:3020
This example is from compute node. It says: I have one physical network: physnet1 which is supported by virtual switch called br-eth3. You need to create this virtual switch on your own! OpenStack networking deamons (Neutron) do not create virtual switches - they only reconfigure them if needed. Physical network is just name which you can use later on if you setup provider network.
Also, in the example you tell OpenStack that you have 11 VLANs available on physnet1 network. Similar configuration has to be done on controller node (but it is only because in simple topology your controller is also network node)
Then I dedicated first VLAN: 2032 for provider network. This was accomplished by command issued on controller node.
# neutron net-create --router:external=true --provider:network_type=vlan --provider:physical_network=physnet1 --provider:segmentation_id=2032 labnet
From that moment this network (called "labnet") should appear in the GUI and you can connect VMs to it. Users might also do this if you mark it as "shared".
Also users should be able to create their private networks and this will allocate VLANs from 3010 to 3020 - so there can be only 10 private networks created totally in your cloud now.
Of course this is example and you can build completely different setup. You can use different ports for provider networks and for tenants one. You do not need VLANs for provider networks and theoretically for tenant too - but you would have to have plenty of ports for this. If you manage to get VxLAN working - then please share your experience here.
I strongly recommend reading following information sources (Oracle does not provide this details in their documentation):
OpenStack Docs: Current
https://developer.rackspace.com/blog/neutron-networking-the-building-blocks-of-an-openstack-cloud/ there are more blog entries (followups) on this topic - look for them using keyword "neutron"
https://www.rdoproject.org/forum/discussion/875/does-rdo-support-flat-network-type-/p1
As for blank VM console:
I've also had this problem when I used Cirros VM images. However when I imported the template I use on my Oracle VM - then console was working correctly. I think this is more connected with VM configuration then OpenStack. AFAIK you can connect to console directly using vnc client - at least you can configure Nova in that way that it allows external VNC connections.

Michal
