Oracle Cloud Infrastructure 2022 Architect Professional — Question 33

You are running a mission-critical database application in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). You take regular backups of your DB system to OCI Object Storage. Recently, you notice a failed database backup status in the console.
What troubleshooting action can you perform to determine the cause of the backup failure?

Answer options

• A. Ensure that the database is not active and running while the backup is in progress.
• B. Ensure that your database host can connect to OCI Object Storage.
• C. Ensure that the dcsagent program is not restarted in case of a stop/waiting status.
• D. Ensure the database archiving mode is set to NOARCHIVELOG.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because connectivity between the database host and OCI Object Storage is crucial for backups to succeed. If there is a connectivity issue, the backup cannot complete. Options A, C, and D do not directly address the potential connectivity problem that could lead to a backup failure.
