Explanation

Options B and F are unambiguously correct: SRVCTL (Server Control) is the tool used to add, remove, and manage components registered with Oracle Restart, and Oracle Restart can manage Database instances, Net Listeners, and ASM instances - its three primary resource types.

A note of caution on Option A: Standard Oracle documentation states Oracle Restart is designed exclusively for non-clustered, standalone servers - clustered environments use Oracle Clusterware instead. Many exam prep sources mark C (runs from the Oracle Grid Infrastructure home) as correct rather than A, since Oracle Restart is installed as part of the GI home. If your source marks A as correct, treat it skeptically.

Why the distractors are wrong:

C - While technically true (it does run from the GI home), exam prep materials sometimes treat this as a distractor to test whether you confuse Oracle Restart with Oracle Clusterware.
D - Oracle Restart is smart: a clean SQL*Plus SHUTDOWN is recognized as intentional and will not trigger a restart; it only restarts after unexpected failures.
E - SRVCTL starts/stops registered components; Oracle Restart's own daemon (HAS) is controlled via crsctl start has / crsctl stop has.

Memory tip: Think of Oracle Restart as a "babysitter for standalone servers" - it watches DB instances, Listeners, and ASM (F), you configure its wards using SRVCTL (B), but it won't wake a component that was deliberately put to bed (D).
