44. User SCOTT executes the following command on the EMP table but has not issued COMMIT, ROLLBACK, or any data definition language (DDL) command:
SQL> SELECT job FROM emp WHERE job='CLERK' FOR UPDATE OF empno;
SCOTT has opened another session to work with the database. Which three operations would wait when issued in SCOTT's second session? (Choose three.)
A) LOCK TABLE emp IN SHARE MODE;
B) LOCK TABLE emp IN EXCLUSIVE MODE;
C) DELETE FROM emp WHERE job='MANAGER';
D) INSERT INTO emp(empno,ename) VALUES (1289,'Dick') ;
E) SELECT job FROM emp WHERE job='CLERK' FOR UPDATE OF empno;
答案：ABE
update, insert ,delete, select ... for update会LOCK相应的ROW. 只有一个TRANSACTION可以LOCK相应的行，也就是说如果一个ROW已经LOCKED了，那就不能被其他TRANSACTION所LOCK了。LOCK由statement产生,由TRANSACTION结尾（commit，rollback），也就是说一个SQL完成后LOCK还会存在，只有在COMMIT/ROLLBACK后才会RELEASE。

D) Increase Database Buffer Cache size to increase cache hits.
E) Configure Large Pool to be used by RMAN and shared server.
F) Increase the total System Global Area (SGA) size to increase memory hits.
答案：E
在磁盘上的备份会使用PGA内存空间作为备份缓冲区，PGA 内存空间从用于通道进程的内存空间中分配。如果操作系统没有配置本地异步I/O，可以利用DBWR_IO_SLAVES参数使用I/O从属来填充内存中的输入缓冲区。如果设置DBWR_IO_SLAVES 参数为任意的非零值，RMAN 会自动分配4个I/O 从属协调输入缓冲区内存中的数据块加载。为了实现这一功能，RMAN 必须利用一个共享内存区域。因此，用于磁盘备份的内存区会被推入共享池，如果存在large池，则被推入large池。
如果没有使用磁带I/O从属，会在PGA中分配用于磁带输出缓冲区的内存。设置init.ora 参数BACKUP_TAPE_IO_SLAVES=TRUE，可以使用磁带I/O从属，必要时还可以在spfile里动态修改。 该参数设为true时，rman 会为每个通道创建一个从属进程来帮助备份工作。为了协调这一功能，RMAN 会将内存分配推进SGA。
如果配置了任一种I/O从属选项并且没有配置large 池，则会在SGA的共享池曲终分配内存。如果没有配置large池又要使用I/O从属，建议最好创建一个large池，这个large池的大小基于为备份分配的通道总数（加上1MB用于开销）。

55. Examine the following commands executed in your database:
SQL> ALTER SESSION RECYCLEBIN=ON;
Session altered
SQL> CREATE TABLE emp TABLESPACE tbsfd AS SELECT * FROM hr.employees;
Table created.
Further, you executed the following command to drop the table:
SQL> DROP TABLE emp;
Table dropped.
What happens in this scenario?
A) The table is moved to the SYSAUX tablespace.
B) The table is moved to the SYSTEM tablespace.
C) The table is removed from the database permanently.
D) The table is renamed and remains in the TBSFD tablespace.
答案：D
The recycle bin is actually a data dictionary table containing information about dropped objects. Dropped tables and any associated objects such as indexes, constraints, nested tables, and the likes are not removed and still occupy space. They continue to count against user space quotas, until specifically purged from the recycle bin or the unlikely situation where they must be purged by the database because of tablespace space constraints.
Each user can be thought of as having his own recycle bin, because, unless a user has the SYSDBA privilege, the only objects that the user has access to in the recycle bin are those that the user owns.
