Oracle Exam 1Z0-1067-25 Topic 5 Question 8 Discussion

Actual exam question for Oracle's 1Z0-1067-25 exam

Question #: 8
Topic #: 5

You created an Oracle Linux compute instance through the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) management console then immediately realize you forgot to add an SSH key file. You notice that OCI compute service provides instance console connections that supports adding SSH keys for a running instance. Hence, you created the console connection for your Linux server and activated it using the connection string provided. However, now you get prompted for a username and password to login. What option should you recommend to add the SSH key to your running instance, while minimizing the administrative overhead? (Choose the best answer.)

AYou need to configure the boot loader to use ttyS0 as a console terminal on the VM.

BYou need to modify the serial console connection string to include the identity file flag, to specify the SSH key to use.

CYou need to terminate the running instance and recreate it by providing the SSH key file.

DYou need to reboot the instance from the console, boot into the bash shell in maintenance mode, and add SSH keys for the OPC user.

Ah, the joys of cloud infrastructure. Option B sounds like the easiest way to get this done without too much hassle. Gotta love those console connections, even if you forget a step or two.

I would go with option D, rebooting the instance and adding SSH keys in maintenance mode seems like a good approach.

Haha, imagine forgetting to add the SSH key. That's a classic cloud computing blunder right there. I'd say option B is the way to go, but maybe keep a checklist next time, eh?

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Rebooting the instance and adding the SSH key in maintenance mode might be a bit overkill. Why not just go with the console connection string option?
