Hi i prepar for oca exam 10 g 1z0-042

I am preparing for OCA exam. I am confused in below question

Two tables with highly restrictive search criteria, indexes on the common column need to be joined and response time needs to be improved. Which type is suitable?
a. Sort-Merge
b. Nested Loop
c. Hash
d. Cluster Join
I think it is Nester Loop but sometime I saw Cluster Join as an answer.

What do you mean 'sometime I saw Cluster Join as an answer'? Where did you see answers to that question?
Where did you see that question? Post a link to the source.
There is no way to know what type of join, if any, is being used now or how many rows are in each of the tables.
There is also no way to know how many rows the query is expected to return. There could be two large tables and a query that need ALL rows and all columns from both tables.
A cluster join can only be used if both tables are in the same cluster. And then if a join is currently being done it is probably already a cluster join.
There is not enough info to know the answer. So why do you think nested loop is the answer?
Here is a brief doc that talks about different join types you might find interesting:

Hey guys, I don't want to run too far away for the original topic here. (Sabdar I am reading your page with great interest) aside from the need to know WHAT to study, I am wondering where to begin? 9i, 10g or 11i? Is it best to learn 9i then the others in sequence or does it matter at all.
Keep in mind I am new to oracle and looking to learn so I can improve my job circumstance. I have been working IT help desk jobs since 2000, went through A+, and have a Win2K MCP. I worked a little with oracle back in 2003 (I believe we were using 8i) but really only scratched the surface of installation and setting up workstations to access existing databases.Phew
... well the link below shows Oracle offering about 7 OCA certifications in a number of categories.
[http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=141]
... I think from your posts your probably more interested in the Database administrator ones....
... Unfortunately I am not sure an Oracle Database Administrator OCA will improve your job prospects, because you wont demonstrator the experience to back it up.
... If you do decide to with Oracle some that route concentrate on a 1z0-007 or 1z0-051 exam first then decide where ou are going.
... If you want to brush up your preliminary sql skills for nothing online the look at [http://www.w3schools.com/sql/default.asp], that is a safe website with regard to certification.
... If you still want to learn database skill ignore certification path initially but loouk the the oracle 2 day dba tutorials.
Please remember in my opinion everything in my earlier post remains valid. Oracle univeristy training is usually best.
I would also suggest you review if you should consider the folloing certifications:
ITIL v3 foundation.
CMA (MySQL) : This is currently being taken over by sun and then I presume oracle. Prehaps no way as prestigous as an oracle but a nice little interim certification nonetheless.
ISEB testing foundation.

Preparing for CLAD exam with LV Basics I and II

Hi
This is my first post, so I want to say hello to all the users. I am currently preparing for CLAD exam. I participate in a course containing material from Core 1 and Core 2. I also have a CBT Labview Basics I and II kit. Does this CBT kit still cover all topics needed to pass this exam? It says that it`s almost 6 years old, so I want to ensure that it`s still worth of using it. Thanks for all the answers.

Another couple things to add. I posted this comment a little while ago which reiterates what ajmartin said: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Do-I-need-Core-3-to-do-CLAD-exam/m-p/1402686#M546312
"Also be aware, I've spoken to quite a few CLAD exam takers in the last year and they all agree that the current CLAD exams are much harder and trickier than the sample exams here on ni.com. One taker for instance missed only one question the first time he took the sample CLAD exam but failed the actual exam by a couple questions. So make sure you're overprepared!"
Someone on the NI community made a pretty comprehensive list of preparation materials here:
http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-14014
Additionally, quite often we work with preparing people for the CLAD exam so I made a video examining a very common type of CLAD question:
http://blog.sixclear.com/post/2702910705/clad-exam-prep-1
You can take a look at the notes there which have a few more links to CLAD preparation resources. I'll include this one where someone on the NI community made a pretty comprehensive list of preparation materials:

Preparation for OCA

Hi,
I have got my Oracle licensed training eKit 10g Workshop-I and Workshop-II from Oracle today and everything seems legit.
My question was, will 11g also be available as an eKit fom Oracle for an ask ?
Also, I'm in preparation of 11g OCA exam firstly and so I guess Workshop-I is mainly for OCA (which includes both SQL Fundamentals 1 and Admin I papers ) while Workshop-II (which includes Admin II paper) is solely for 11g OCP certification right ?
Source: http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=458&get_params=p_track_id:Datab11g

@Bigleboy : Thanks for ur reply. I just have one more question if I may ask,
All I meant was the installation in simple words :)Again this is better asked on the Linux ( or perhaps Oracle Installation forums) where there are a few people you are particularly up to speed on this. ( I've been more solaris than OEL, or OL as they like to call it now recently). OLx.x can sometimes be exacting in its requirement for Oracle Database installations, getting the right packages installed, firewall and SELinux overcome (or disabled). In particular OL6.x had challenges for an Oracle Database Installs. And earlier (unpatched) versions of the database on newer OS versions may also have issues, which is why I am cautious (and perhaps over cautious) of 10gR2 on OEL6 { I haven't researched it }. I recall guides from Jeff Hunter and others being useful in times gone by, and have not researched whether these remain valid.
From a certification point of view (esp. for DBA's) however this is a useful reminder to:
- Find and check original documentation, release notes. ( They really aren't that bad most of the time, and a DBA needs to do this, at least sometimes they are clearer and better than some guides, once you know where look. Part of the certification journey should be practicing doing this ).
- The DBA should be prepared to read his installation documentation and release notes carefully, and respect version pre-requisites ( or prepare for a life of service outages ).
Some Links:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/linux/index-099698.html
... This should really be on one of the forums mentioned, but perhaps it useful for other certification googlers to checkout information Oracle itself actually provides through itself rather than relying on guides. The links and associated links have varying levels of authority

How to prepare for 1zo 052 exam?

Hi
I have recently passed my 1zo-051 exam and i am looking forward to taking the next step to become a certfied admin profession .I am not very sure as to how to prepare for the exam should i study dumps and ebooks or should i go for practical training download the software set it up from scratch and learn ?

>should i study dumps and ebooks or should i go for practical training download the software set it up from scratch and learn ?
'Dumps' is short for Brain Dumps and these are not valid preparation materials. Using them can cause you to be banned from the Oracle certification program.
Installing the software is good preparation. You can also find a number of links to valid study materials here:
