Oracle Database 12c: Multitenancy Essentials — Question 4

Which three statements are true about Exadata storage server alerts in an X5 Database Machine?

Answer options

• A. Storage server alerts notifications may be sent using SNMP.
• B. A threshold- based alert gets cleared automatically when the measured value no longer violates the threshold.
• C. A storage server alert is only ever issued as a warning or at a critical situation.
• D. Storage server alerts are all stateless alerts.
• E. Storage server alerts are all stateful alerts.
• F. Storage server alerts notifications may be sent using SMTP.

Correct answer: A, C, F

Explanation

Option A is correct because Exadata alerts can indeed be communicated through SNMP notifications. Option C is also valid as storage server alerts are designed to indicate either warnings or critical issues. Option F is correct for the same reason as A, but options B, D, and E are incorrect as they misrepresent the nature of alerts; some alerts may not be cleared automatically, and storage server alerts are stateful, not stateless.
