Oracle Database Administration from Zero to Hero - Practice - Using Oracle Data Pump

This video tutorial covers the use of Oracle Data Pump utilities for migrating the SOE schema from one database to another. It includes steps for exporting the schema, setting up the destination database, creating necessary directories, and running export and import jobs. The tutorial also addresses common errors and demonstrates data transfer using network links. Key takeaways highlight the reliability of Data Pump utilities for cross-platform data movement.

What is the primary purpose of using Oracle Data Pump utilities?

• To create new databases

• To move data between Oracle databases

• To delete data from databases

• To update database software

Why is it important to know the total size of the SOE schema before migration?

• To decide on the database version

• To calculate the migration cost

• To determine the number of users

• To ensure there is enough space in the target database

What should be done if the OMF is enabled in the database?

• Set the data file in the CREATE TABLE SPACE statement

• No need to set the data file in the CREATE TABLE SPACE statement

• Increase the tablespace size

• Disable OMF

What is the purpose of using the DBMS_METADATA package?

• To monitor database performance

• To delete database objects

• To backup the database

• To generate DDL statements for recreating database objects

What should be done to the generated DDL statements before executing them?

• Translate them to another language

• Convert them to uppercase

• Remove all semicolons

• Add a semicolon at the end of each statement

What is the expected size of the dump file according to the utility calculations?

• 30 megabytes

• 100 megabytes

• 53 megabytes

• 60 megabytes

Why is it necessary to copy the dump file to a local location on Windows?

• To reduce file size

• To improve performance

• To increase security

• Windows cannot access network shared folders

What common error might occur when importing PL/SQL packages?

• ORA-39082

• ORA-12560

• ORA-12154

• ORA-00942

What privilege is required to create a database link?

• CREATE DATABASE LINK

• CREATE VIEW

• CREATE TABLE

• CREATE SESSION

What is a key takeaway about Data Pump utilities?

• They are used for database creation

• They can move data across different platforms

• They can only move data within the same platform

• They are unreliable for data movement
