Management operations for Autonomous Databases on Shared Exadata Infrastructure are limited due to its fully managed nature. The correct statement is:
You cannot configure the scheduling for your Autonomous Databases on Shared Exadata Infrastructure (C):In shared infrastructure, Oracle fully controls maintenance scheduling (e.g., patching, upgrades). Unlike dedicated infrastructure, where users can set maintenance windows, shared ADB users cannot adjust timing. Oracle notifies users of upcoming maintenance (e.g., via email or console), typically in a 7-day window, but the exact schedule is Oracle-driven to optimize the shared Exadata platform. For example, a quarterly patch might occur on a Tuesday at 2 AM UTC, and users must adapt, not reschedule.
The incorrect options are:
You can skip a scheduled maintenance run... (A):False. Shared infrastructure does not allow skipping maintenance runs, even for two quarters. This flexibility exists only in dedicated infrastructure, where users have more control (e.g., skipping up to two consecutive updates). In shared mode, Oracle enforces updates for security and stability across all tenants.
You can perform a "rolling restart"... (B):False. Rolling restarts (restarting nodes sequentially for availability) are not user-initiated in ADB shared infrastructure. Restarts, if needed, are managed by Oracle during maintenance, and users cannot control the process orensure node-by-node availability.
You can choose to use Release Update or Release Update Revision updates... (D):False. In shared infrastructure, Oracle applies Release Updates (RUs) uniformly across all databases; users cannot choose between RU or Release Update Revisions (RURs), a feature reserved for dedicated deployments.
This reflects the trade-off of shared infrastructure: lower cost and management effort for less control.
