Oracle Database 11g: RAC Administration

This course offers students an introduction to the general features and capabilities of Oracle Database 11g Release 1 for Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC). Students learn how to install and administer Oracle Clusterware, Real Application Clusters, and Automatic Storage Management. Students also learn how to administer their Database in a Real Application Clusters environment using Enterprise Manager Grid Control. Increase your efficiency by learning how to configure and use database services as well as the Load Balancing Advisory in a RAC environment. Learn how to add and remove nodes in clusters and how to patch both Oracle Clusterware and Real Application Clusters software in a rolling fashion.
