Oracle Business Intelligence Cloud Service 2016 Implementation Specialist — Question 4

The DISK_REPAIR_TIME attribute has expired after a transient disk error. What happens next?

Answer options

• A. Nothing, it was only a warning. All the disks are OK
• B. This means that the disk is repaired and is put back in the ASM disk group.
• C. Oracle ASM drops the disk.
• D. This means that Oracle will use ASM Fast Mirror Resync to sync the rest of the disks.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because once the DISK_REPAIR_TIME expires, Oracle ASM will drop the affected disk from the disk group as it indicates that the disk is no longer viable. Options A and B are incorrect because they misinterpret the implications of the expired attribute, while option D incorrectly suggests that synchronization occurs when the disk is actually dropped.
