Q25. Which two are true about Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a Standalone Server?
- A. It must be installed before the Oracle database software is installed.
- B. It supports volume management, file system, and automatically restart capabilities.
- C. It can manage database resources on the server where it is installed or on a different server.
- D. It requires Oracle Automatic Storage Management (ASM) components to be installed separately.
- E. The CSS daemon runs from the Grid Infrastructure home.
Answer: BE
Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server includes Oracle Restart and Oracle Automatic Storage Management.
If you install Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server and then create your database, then the database is automatically added to the Oracle Restart configuration. Oracle Restart automatically restarts the database when required.
If you install Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server on a host computer on which a database already exists, then you must manually add the database, the listener, the Oracle ASM instance, and other components to the Oracle Restart configuration before you are able to configure automatic database restarts.
Server scope: It manages database resources on the same server where it is installed.
CSS daemon: The Cluster Synchronization Services (CSS) daemon, which manages resource coordination and high availability, runs from the Grid Infrastructure home.
