Oracle Database 12c: RAC Administration — Question 2

Which method can be used to convert a single-instance Oracle 12c Database to a RAC Database?

Answer options

• A. using DBCA to migrate the database to shared storage and then start one or more RAC database instances on the cluster
• B. using DBCA to create a template from the single-instance database and then to create a RAC database on the cluster using that template
• C. using the rconfig utility to create a template from the single-instance database and then using DBCA to create a RAC database on the cluster using that template
• D. using the rconfig utility to migrate the database to shared storage and then using DBCA to start one or more RAC database instances on the cluster.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Option B is correct because it involves creating a template from the single-instance database using DBCA, which is the proper method for transitioning to a RAC database. The other options either incorrectly involve shared storage migration or utilize the rconfig utility where it is not necessary for this specific conversion process.
