Oracle DBA Mastery: Advanced Administration & Recovery

This advanced boot camp guides you through Oracle Database Administration II (1Z0-083) topics. You will master multitenant architecture, backup/recovery strategies, patching/upgrading, performance tuning, RMAN, and diagnostics. You will work in hands-on labs with real Oracle environments. After the course you will be able to manage CDBs/PDBs, perform recovery, apply patches, troubleshoot RMAN, and optimize performance.

TTOR20510 Oracle Database Foundations
TTOR20520 Oracle Database Administration Fundamentals

1) Multitenant Architecture & CDB / PDB Management 

  • Concepts: CDBs, PDBs, application containers, root, seed 
  • Creating CDBs and PDBs (from seed, cloning) 
  • Plugging/unplugging PDBs, relocating, cloning 
  • PDB service names, initialization parameters 
  • Resource Manager for CDBs / PDBs, resource plans 

Lab 

  • Create a CDB, seed PDB, new PDB from seed 
  • Clone a PDB, unplug and plug it to another container 
  • Configure PDB service names 
  • Use Resource Manager to limit CPU or memory to PDBs 

2) Security & Policy in Multitenant Environments 

  • Managing security in CDB and PDB layers 
  • PDB lockdown profiles 
  • Audit configuration across containers 
  • Policies in application containers 

Lab 

  • Apply a lockdown profile to a PDB 
  • Set up audits (login, DDL) at container scope 
  • Create and apply container policies 

3) Backup, Recovery & Flashback 

  • RMAN fundamentals (full, incremental, cumulative) 
  • Backup strategies: compression, encryption, multiplexing 
  • Flashback features: DB flashback, PDB flashback 
  • Recovery scenarios: complete, point-in-time, media failure 

Lab 

  • Configure RMAN backups, test restores 
  • Use flashback to undo data corruption 
  • Recover a PDB and a CDB after failure 

4) Database Duplication & Data Transport 

  • Duplicate databases and PDBs (RMAN duplicate) 
  • Transportable tablespaces and transportable PDBs 
  • Data movement across platforms 

Lab 

  • Duplicate a live PDB or CDB using RMAN 
  • Transport a tablespace or PDB to a different container or host 

5) Upgrades, Patching & Grid Infrastructure 

  • Oracle software installation and patching strategies 
  • Upgrading CDB/PDBs (manual and automatic) 
  • Oracle Grid Infrastructure, Oracle Restart 
  • Rolling upgrades in multitenant 

Lab 

  • Patch Oracle software and apply DB PSU 
  • Upgrade a database version within multitenant 
  • Configure Oracle Restart and verify auto start 

6) Performance Monitoring & RMAN Tuning 

  • AWR, ADDM, advisory framework 
  • Wait events, metrics, threshold alerts 
  • SQL tuning: optimizer, statistics, SQL Tuning Advisor 
  • RMAN message interpretation and tuning 

Lab 

  • Run AWR reports, analyze top wait events 
  • Use SQL Tuning Advisor on a sample SQL 
  • Capture RMAN logs, diagnose performance bottlenecks 

7) Diagnostics, Failure Analysis & Wrap-Up 

  • Common failure scenarios and diagnostic methods 
  • Data block corruption detection and repair 
  • Using DBVERIFY, RMAN validate, block recovery 
  • Exam review, integrated workflows 

Lab 

  • Intentionally corrupt a block and repair 
  • Use RMAN VALIDATE, recovery catalog validation 
  • Complete an end-to-end exercise: setup CDB/PDB, backup, failure, recovery, tuning
