Quetion on database 10g Admin 1 certification exam 1Z0-042

I am preparing for this exam Oracle Database 10g: administration1 (1Z0-042). Do you know if this exam only contains multiple-choices questions or does it have some "play" with OEM as well? (where students have to perform certain actions in OEM).
Ta.

The questions will be multiple choice. You might see questions that show a screen shot of EM.

10g Admin OCA Path- 1Z0-042

Hi all,
I am happy to tell you that I have cleared 1Z0-047 exam. Now I need to prepare for 1Z0-042, I have some queries regarding the same.
1. For 1Z0-047 exam, I studied on my own and could manage to clear the examination (not to boast myself, since I am working, I dint find time to attend classes and also my friend had asked me to study on my own for this exam).
Can I also study for 1Z0-042 on my own and clear the exam or is it required to go for coaching?
2. I am from Bangalore and here except at Oracle University, none of the training institutes will conduct classes in 10g ( I am not sure about this, if anyone knows any training institutes (other than Oracle university) who conduct classes in 10g Admin/1Z0-042 exam and fees being minimal, please reply with the address and phone number).
So can I still opt for Oracle 9i admin classes and write Oracle 10g admin exam?
3. If I study on my own, is the prescribed book by Chip Dawes sufficient?
Regards
Praveen

this seems good.

You can study for ANY Oracle exam on your own. (except perhaps OCM exams, if you get that far you should know what its about yourself).
However for some Certifications you may have to attend an authroized hands-on course from an authorized provided.
This does not affect you with regard to 1z0-042 for 10g DBA OCA; but DOES affect you if you go on for 10g DBA OCP.
2. I am from Bangalore and here except at Oracle University, none of the training institutes will conduct classes in 10g ( I am not sure about this, if anyone knows any training institutes (other than Oracle university) who conduct classes in 10g Admin/1Z0-042 exam and fees being minimal, please reply with the address and phone number).
So can I still opt for Oracle 9i admin classes and write Oracle 10g admin exam?
The simple answer is No. This will not get you a 10g OCP certification (and it wont get you a 9g OCP certification).
If you take a 9i authorized WDP program you will need to take 1z0-031 for your 9i DBA OCA (you already have 1z0-047).
You can then take 1z0-032 and 1z0-033 for your 9i DBA OCP. (A properly AUTHORIZED WDP class from an authorized provider will count as hands-on).
As a 9i DBA OCP you can then take 1z0-040 to attain a 10g DBA OCP with no further hands on courses. (You could also have taken 1z0-042+1z0-043 as an alternative to 1z0-040).
However if you simply pass 1z0-042+1z0-043 and do not present a course from the 10g DBA OCP approved course list you will not receive a 10g DBA OCP certificate.
All the info you need can be had by drilling down from [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=151]
3. If I study on my own, is the prescribed book by Chip Dawes sufficient?
The Dawes authors or part authors many books; I assume in this case you mean the sybex book wrt the 10g DBA OCA exam. This book is probably adequate for the exam, though you are advised also to seek other authorized certification-safe material and traiing and to become familiar with online documentation etc. Please rmember the topics have changed slightly since the book was written, the exam is now 10gR2 based; the book is 10gR1, though changes are not great.

Edited by: user11183889 on Oct 19, 2009 12:14 PMYou have two choices:
1) Locate a suitable authorized WDP program provider, take the classes, and take the 9i DBA exams and to obtain a 9i DBA OCP then take further exam(s) to obtain a 10g DBA OCP.
or
2) Continue taking 1z0-042 and 1z0-043; but be very aware the 10g DBA OCP certification will not be obtained until you attend a hands on class. Please realise this can be expensive so locate courses that may before embarking. Remember that courses such as 10g Dataguard administation are 3 days courses and are cheaper. These are best attended at Oracle University. Also be aware 10g classes are being gradually replaced by 11g classes; so 10g classes may become rarer.
(Please be aware there appear to have been some examples of the WDP programme being delivered badly. You are recommended to try to contact previous students to confirm the course is delivered well by the institute you choose).
Please be aware at a WDP you a limited to a maximum of 6 hours tution a week MAXIMUM.

OCA Exam 1Z0-042 - focus on Oracle Database 10g R2 from Nov 1st.

I was planning to take the OCA (Exam 1Z0-042) next week. But I recently saw that starting November 1, the focus of the exam will be on Oracle Database 10g R2.
I have been preparing with the hlep of the Oracle10g Administraton I book from Sybex. Will the topis differ to a great extent now that the exam will focus only on R2? Has anyone taken this exam after November 1 and found a great difference?
Thanks,

Thanks bhuttie. I do plan to take the selftest exams but I was just thrown off with the words " focus on Oracle Database 10g R2" on Oracle's website. Did you take the exam after November 1 as well ?

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.

Thanks,
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.

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.

1Z0-043 10g Admin II Exam material

Hi all
I've passed my 10g OCA, so gearing up for the 10g OCP exam (1Z0-043).
I will be working from the Watson / Bersinic book, and am also booked on the ADMIN WORKSHOP II 5 day Hands On course. My question concerns marrying up the topics in the book and the course, with what is in the syllabus.
The Hands On course description here:
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/show_desc.redirect?dc=D17312&source_call=#4
..mentions topics relating to Database Security (VPD's), Data Movement (data pump, external tables etc) & VLDB's. By my reckoning Data Movement was covered in the OCA 1Z0-042 exam, and Database Security & VLDB's are not mentioned in the syllabus here, nor are they mentioned anywhere in the Watson book.:
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_043#3
I know the syllabus is subject to change, and the Watson book has some crossover in terms of 1z0-042 & 043 material, but this would appear to be a large ommission. Primarily, I wish to ensure that I don't need to revisit data pump, nor cover the Security & Large Database material - the source of which would only appear to be available via the Hands On course / Oracle documentation anyway.
Comments welcome....
Thanks

If a topic is not listed in the topics provided on the exam page (http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_043#3), it will not be on the exam.

Can i take 1z0-042 (10g admin 1) after 1z0-007 Oracle 9i

Hello ! I have a query about Oracle Certification 10g admin 1 (1z0-042).
I have passed 1z0-007 Oracle SQL 9i in december 28 , 2012.
Now i have decided to complete OCP DBA track in Oracle 10g.
My Questions are,
1. should i need to upgrade?
2. Does1z0-042 complet my OCA ?
3. Will I have a choice to complete OCP by taking 1z0-043 ?
according to this link
Oracle Exam 1Z0-007 Is Being Retired: What Does That Mean to Me?
it's clear that i can take 1z0-042 exam having previous passed1z0-007 (SQL 9i) .
I am just asking this for my complete satisfaction before i am preparing for next exam.
thanks...

1. should i need to upgrade?
2. Does1z0-042 complet my OCA ?
3. Will I have a choice to complete OCP by taking 1z0-043 ?
I'm going to answer these out of order:
2. Yes. Passing 1Z0-042 would make you an Oracle Database 10g Administrator Certified Associate.
3. Once you have the 10g OCA, if you pass 1Z0-043 and complete the required hands-on training, you would become an Oracle Database 10g Administrator Certified Professional.
1. Once you are at step three (i.e. a 10g OCP), you can upgrade to 11g... and soon to 12c. This is good from a career standpoint, but I would not go to the extreme of saying you need to. If it comes to that, you don't need to become certified at all. Certification can help in your career as an Oracle DBA, but it is not a requirement.

Database 11g Administrator or Database 10g Administrator certification?

Which certification will better to go:
Database 11g Administrator
or
Database 10g Administrator
Thanks

Thanks11g Database Certifications will become increasingly more imortant than 10g Database Certifications.
The simple answer is 11g. However one could write a book on the reasons, and for some 10g would be a better choice. And others will say 10g. And at OCA level there is at least 80% commonality on the exam topics between 10g DBA OCA and 11g DBA OCP. If you are progressing to OCP DBA level then appropriate choice of a hands on course(s) may be a financially influencing factor.

IS DBA ASSESSMENT EXAM 1Z0-042 REALLY FREE?

Hi,
I am a student studying Oracle 10g admin I and preparing for my OCA exams. I am told that Oracle 1Z0-041 Exams is an optional and FREE exam from Oracle to prepare students for taking Oracle 10g certification exams.
I need confirmation from Oracle that the above online exam is really FREE.
If it is will someone email me the link?
Thanks

(1). 1Z0-041 -- "USED" to be free, Not anymore -- Pay $90 and get an assessment.
(2). 1Z0-042 -- Actual Exam, Upon Getting thru -- You would be a 10g OCA.
All the Best

Exam 1Z0-042

Hi,
I've just started studying for the first exam on Oracle 10g. I was just wondering, after taking some Microsoft and CompTIA certification exams, if anybody had any clues as to what to expect not having taken any Oracle exams before.
I'm not asking for answers or sample questions, but just an overall feeling of the exam (e.g. you need to know all switches for expdp ;)).
Thank you,
Greg
P.S: Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask. I did not find any certification forums.

The exams thankfully don't try to see if you remembered anything by heart, but are designed to make sure you understand, at least at a high level, many Oracle concepts. It might be worthwhile remembering the most important parameters/switches of commands, but it's much more important to understand when to use some feature, the features major limitations, and the high-level steps on how to use a feature. Doing the examples provided in manuals always helped me a lot, as I tend to remember more after I do something myself. By the way, I'm Oracle 8i and 9i OCP (and currently thinking about doing 10G).

Regarding 10g OCA Certificated Exam

Hi,
I would like to do Oracle Certificate Exam OCA, I am getting confused, Is Oracle 10g ,1Z0-001 Introduction to Oracle: SQL and PL/SQL (retired) - It is expired or not.

There are several different OCA certifications; if you tell us the one you want the choices get clearer; though in general one hopes the OCA candidate has some degree of ability to work it out for themselves; though a bit of confirmation is sometimes understandable as there is a lot of investment involved by some people.

Topic on Certification exam 1z0-146

Hi folks,
About 1z0-146 (Advanced PL/SQL ) exam topics, what should be a more detailed description of this topic :
Analyzing PL/SQL Code
[] Run reports on source code
to what package or utility does that topic make reference ?
thanks in advance.

I expect that would refer to a familiarity with the DBA_SOURCE, DBA_PROCEDURES, and DBA_DEPENDENCIES views.
