Actual exam question for Oracle's 1Z0-1093-25 exam

Question #: 4
Topic #: 5

Which statement accurately describes the patching process for Oracle Grid Infrastructure (GI) and ASM components on a BaseDB VM system when using user-managed patching?

AGI and ASM patching is fully automated by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and requires no user intervention.

BThe DBA must manually download the GI and ASM patch bundles and apply them using the appropriate patching tools.

CGI and ASM patching is integrated with the database patching process and is automatically handled when the database is patched.

DPatching GI and ASM components is only required when the operating system of the VM is upgraded.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

B . Manual patching for GI and ASM:

In a user-managed environment, the DBA is responsible for downloading and applying patches for Grid Infrastructure (GI) and Automatic Storage Management (ASM).

These patches are distinct from database patches and need to be applied using tools like opatch or Oracle Universal Installer (OUI).

The process involves:

Downloading the patch from Oracle Support.

Staging the patch on the server.

Applying the patch using the appropriate commands.

Why the other options are incorrect:

A . Fully automated by OCI: OCI does not automatically patch GI and ASM in user-managed environments.

C . Integrated with database patching: GI and ASM patching is handled separately.

D . Required only during OS upgrade: Incorrect, as patching is required independently for security and stability.

B seems like the correct answer. The DBA would need to manually manage the patching process for GI and ASM components.

I agree with Reita. It makes sense that DBA would need to handle the patching process.
