Question 1

Examine this tnsnames entry from a RAC configuration using a SCAN listener:
HR=(DESCRIPTION=
(LOAD_BALANCE =on)
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=cluster01-scan)(FORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=HRSRV)))
Which two statements are true about clients using this entry to connect? (Choose two.)

  • A. The host name in the tnsnames entry must be changed if nodes are added or removed from the Cluster.
  • B. Clients using EZConnect can benefit from connect time load balancing because the tnsnames entry refers to a SCAN listener.
  • C. Client connection requests are automatically balanced across all IP addresses defined for the SCAN.
  • D. A client connection request is received by a SCAN listener that creates the connection to the least-loaded database instance.
  • E. Client connection requests are automatically failed over to another SCAN listener if the chosen SCAN listener is not available.

Question 3

  • C. In a RAC database, there is no LMD0 process if only one instance is running.
  • D. Global Enqueues and Instance Locks replace latches completely in RAC database instances.

Explanation:
F: A convert queue is a queue of locks that are waiting to be converted to particular mode, this is the process of changing a
lock from one mode to another, even a NULL is a lock. A resource has a lock value block (LVB). The Global Resource
Manager (GRM) keeps the lock information valid and correct across the cluster. Oracle 10g release 2 and beyond replaced
some latch mechanisms with the mutex approach, claiming that they are faster and more efficient than traditional locking
mechanisms.
Incorrect Answers:
B, D: Mutexes are objects that exist within the operating system to provide access to shared memory structures. They are
similar to latches. References:
