1Z0-052 Question #249: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is A. create baseline metrics for today's performance. Before any alerting or comparison mechanism can be configured, a performance baseline must be captured first to serve as the reference point for detecting future degradation.
Performing Database Maintenance
Question
You find today's performance of your production database to be the best ever. Therefore, you want to be notified in the future whenever the performance degrades by 10% of today's performance. What is the first step that you would take to ensure this?
Options
- Acreate baseline metrics for today's performance
- Bwrite the current database metrics to a database table and create a trigger to compare with future
- Cwrite the current database metrics to a flat file and create an operating script to compare with
- Dwrite the current database metrics to a database table and create a procedure to compare with
- Ewrite the current database metrics to a database table and submit a job using DBMS_JOB to
Explanation
Before any alerting or comparison mechanism can be configured, a performance baseline must be captured first to serve as the reference point for detecting future degradation.
Common mistakes.
- B. Writing metrics to a table and creating a trigger addresses the comparison mechanism but skips the prerequisite of formally establishing a named, time-stamped baseline.
- C. Writing metrics to a flat file is an informal approach that bypasses Oracle's built-in baseline management and is still not the first logical step.
- D. Creating a stored procedure to compare metrics is a subsequent automation step that presupposes a baseline has already been captured and stored.
- E. Scheduling a job via DBMS_JOB to perform comparisons is a later step that cannot function correctly without a baseline already defined as the reference.
