Content and Overview
Information presented in this course provides Oracle Database Administrators the knowledge and experience to manage Oracle 12c RAC databases, including administrator-managed, policy-managed, CDB and RAC One node databases.
Through this extensive course of good 58 lectures and more than 18 hours of video-based sessions, you’ll learn all of the managing Oracle 12c RAC databases. After every concepts lecture, you will implement a hands-on practical exercise. To guide you on implementing the practices, the practice lectures are supported by video-based demonstrations and the downloadable guide documents.
Starting with introducing the Oracle 12c RAC Architecture, this course will take you all the away from creating Oracle 12c two-node RAC databases on a Linux platform of any type: administrator-managed, policy-managed, and CDB, performing administration tasks on Oracle RAC databases, managing backup and recovery in Oracle RAC, managing dynamic database services, implementing load balancing, TAF, FAN, and application continuity, applying patch sets on Oracle RA, upgrading Oracle RAC, and understanding Oracle Flex Cluster. The course will cover the Oracle RAC capabilities in the two 12c releases: 12.1 and 12.2.
This is an opportunity for the students to gain practical experience on this Oracle cutting-edge technology without the need for complex hardware components.
Upon completing this course, you will be able to build up an Oracle 12c RAC database and have the knowledge and experience to manage it.

- Get familiar with Swingbench
The target of this practice is getting familiar with Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Express. In high level, you will perform the following:
- Apply workload on the RAC database using Swingbench
- Use the Oracle EM Database Express to perform basic administration functions
- Use the Oracle EM Database Express to carry out some performance management and monitoring functions.
In this lecture, you should understand and describe the following:
- Performance tuning tools
- Global Cache wait events
- Global Enqueue wait events
- Common RAC-related performance issues and their resolutions
- Tips to tune Oracle RAC performance
- Using ADDM in RAC
The target of this practice is practicing various ways to monitor and tune Oracle RAC database. Specifically, you will perform the following:
- Monitor the status of the clusterware resource, RAC database, and GRD memory usage.
- Use EM Express to narrow down a performance bottleneck and tune slow sessions
- Proof of concept study cases:
- The impact of using sequences to generate unique values versus using tables.
- The impact of enabling the cache option in the sequences. You will use the v$views as tuning tools in this study case.
