Oracle Database 12c: Installation and Administration — Question 234

You plan to install the Oracle Database 12c software. You want to use Oracle Automatic Storage Management (ASM) for storage and Oracle Restart for managing components. Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a Standalone Server is already installed on the server.
Which three statements must be true for successful installation of the Oracle Database 12c software? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. The OSBACKUPDBA, OSDGDBA, and OSKMDBA OS groups must be created.
• B. An operating system OSDBA group must be created for users with the SYSDBA system privilege.
• C. The Oracle Database 12c software owner and the Oracle Grid Infrastructure owner must belong to the same Oracle Inventory Group.
• D. The Oracle Database 12c installation must have a separate Oracle inventory directory.
• E. An operating system OSOPER group be created for users with the SYSOPER system privilege.

Correct answer: B, C, E

Explanation

Option B is correct because an OSDBA group is necessary for users to gain SYSDBA privileges. Option C is also correct as both database and Grid Infrastructure owners must belong to the same Oracle Inventory Group to ensure proper management and access. Option E is valid as well since an OSOPER group is required for users who need SYSOPER privileges. Options A and D are not mandatory for the installation of Oracle Database 12c.
