Standard 5-day Curriculum
Oracle 11gR1 DBA: Real Application Clusters
  
Duration: 5 Days
 
Description:
With every release of Oracle, the architecture behind RAC implementation has changed to provide a more robust and intelligent solution towards Oracle's grid strategy. This course discusses Oracle 11g Release 1 features in a RAC implementation with respect to usage and design considerations. Areas covered include performance tuning with examples, troubleshooting and problem solving.

This course on RAC will enlighten and educate students on the internals of RAC operations, cache fusion and the fast reconfiguration of RAC. Course will look at the storage subsystem using both ASM and non-ASM which includes OCFS2.0 and other cluster file system options.
In this hands-on course the students will learn to configure and manage a RAC database environment.
