Oracle Database Administration from Zero to Hero - Practice - Performing Recovery Part II

This video tutorial covers recovery procedures for Oracle DB, focusing on two main scenarios: recovering data file loss by switching to image copies and performing database point in time recovery (DBPITR). The tutorial provides step-by-step instructions for each scenario, including taking backups, simulating data loss, and executing recovery commands. The video emphasizes the importance of running the database in archive log mode and highlights the efficiency of using image copies for faster recovery. The tutorial concludes with a successful demonstration of data recovery and a summary of the procedures covered.

What are the two main recovery scenarios discussed in the video?

• Data file loss recovery and database point-in-time recovery

• Database upgrade and data migration

• User account recovery and data encryption

• Network configuration and security patching

Which mode must the database be running in to perform data file loss recovery?

• No Archive Log Mode

• Archive Log Mode

• Read-Only Mode

• Backup Mode

What is the first step in recovering a lost data file using image copies?

• Invoke RMAN and connect to the database

• Delete the user tablespace data file

• Validate the database

• Switch the redo log files

In the DBPITR scenario, what is the main reason for performing the recovery?

• To upgrade the database

• To recover mistakenly deleted data

• To improve database performance

• To change the database schema

What action simulates user activity in the DBPITR scenario?

• Dropping the employees table

• Switching the redo log files

• Deleting the user tablespace

• Shutting down the database

What is the final step in the DBPITR process?

• Validate the database

• Shut down SRV one and restore it to the snapshot

• Switch the redo log files

• Drop the employees table

What was the outcome of the recovery procedures discussed in the video?

• The data was successfully recovered

• The recovery process failed

• The data was not recovered

• The database was corrupted
