Nutanix NCP-DB Exam - Topic 2 Question 30 Discussion

Actual exam question for Nutanix's NCP-DB exam
Question #: 30
Topic #: 2
[All NCP-DB Questions]

When an Oracle database is upgraded using Era, what is the type of upgrade category?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C, D

To create a software profile version for a newly-released Oracle ISc patch, an administrator should follow these steps:

Download the required patch from MyOracle Support1. This is because Oracle patches are typically available from MyOracle Support, not Microsoft Support.

Apply the patch to the Oracle Home/Grid Home on a cloned VM of the gold image using OPatchAuto1. OPatchAuto is a utility provided by Oracle that automates the process of applying patches to a database.

Ensure success of patch application1. It's important to verify that the patch has been applied successfully to avoid any issues down the line.

Create a new software profile version from the original software profile using the cloned VM where OPatchAuto was run successfully using Era GUI1. This step is necessary to ensure that the new patch is included in the software profile.

Mark the original patch profile as hidden1. This step is optional but can be useful for keeping the software profile clean and organized.

Please note that these answers are based on the information available as of my last update in 2021 and may need to be verified with the most recent Nutanix Database Automation (NCP-DB) documentation or resources.

I thought it was an out-of-place upgrade at first!

I thought "In-place upgrade" was more common, but I guess it depends on the context of the upgrade with Era.

I feel like we practiced a similar question, and I think "Non-disruptive upgrade" was the answer, but I could be mixing it up.

This is a good question to test our understanding of Oracle upgrade types. I'll carefully consider each option and select the one that best matches the description of an Oracle upgrade using the Era tool.

I'm a little confused by the wording of the question. Does "Era" refer to a specific Oracle upgrade tool? I'll need to double-check the details on that before selecting an answer.

Okay, I've got this. Based on my understanding, an "in-place" upgrade is the type where the database is upgraded on the same server, while an "out-of-place" upgrade involves setting up a new server and migrating the database. I'll go with option A.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the difference between "disruptive" and "non-disruptive" upgrades. I'll need to review those concepts before answering.

I'm going to have to say D) Non-disruptive upgrade. I don't want to have to tell my boss that the database is down for an upgrade. That would be a 'disruptive upg raze' of my career!

In-place upgrade, option A, might be quicker but it can be risky. It's always better to go with a safer option like D) Non-disruptive upgrade.

I think B) Out-of-place upgrade could also be a good option. It allows for a separate environment to test the upgrade before applying it to the production database.

Hmm, I've heard of in-place and out-of-place upgrades, but 'disruptive upg raze'? I wonder if that's a typo or a new Oracle feature I'm not aware of.
