Oracle Cloud Infrastructure 2020 Architect Associate — Question 15

Which statement is true about Data Guard implementation in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) bare metal and virtual machine database systems?

Answer options

• A. Both database systems must be in the same compartment.
• B. Primary and standby database versions and editions need not be identical.
• C. Primary and standby databases must be in the same OCI region.
• D. Database systems need not be the same shape type (e.g., primary database can be a virtual machine, and standby database a bare metal shape, and vice versa).

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because Data Guard implementation requires that both the primary and standby database systems are located within the same compartment to ensure proper management and access controls. Option B is incorrect as the versions and editions of the databases must match. Option C is wrong because the primary and standby databases need not be in the same OCI region. Option D is also inaccurate since the shape types can vary.
