Oracle SOA Suite 12c Essentials — Question 16

Which two statements are correct about cluster support for Oracle SOA Suite 12c applications?

Answer options

• A. A cluster appears to clients as multiple WebLogic Server instances.
• B. The server instances in a cluster must all run on the same machine.
• C. You can scale a cluster by adding machines to the cluster to host additional server instances.
• D. Server instances in a cluster can run different versions of WebLogic Server.
• E. You can create a cluster by using WLST, the WebLogic Server Administration Console, or Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control.
• F. For management purposes, you can split a cluster across multiple domains.

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answers are B and C. B is accurate because all server instances in a cluster must reside on the same machine to provide a unified environment. C is also correct since clusters can indeed be scaled by adding new machines that host additional server instances, allowing for greater resource management and load balancing. The other options are incorrect as they either misrepresent how clusters operate or provide inaccurate information regarding version compatibility and management.
