Which two statements are true about the Global Enqueue Service, Instance Locks, and global enqueues in Oracle 12c RAC?

The correct answer is A. In a RAC One Node database, there is no LMD0 process if only one instance is running. F. Global Enqueues may have converters and waiters in the same isntance. 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…

  • DGlobal Enqueues and Instance Locks replace latches completely in RAC database isntances.
  • EGlobal Enqueues may have owners and waiters in the same instance.
  • FGlobal Enqueues may have converters and waiters in the same isntance.

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.
