Not quite. Have a look at http://www.oracle.com/education/certification/objectives/index.html?dba9 iocm_practobj.html. And you have access to the doc, but can't use the search functionality (that requires network access and every box is standalone so you can't log into another student's database): Overall Practicum Objectives Configure an Oracle9i database environment by creating the logical and physical structures required to support optimal performance. Configure an Oracle9i network environment to support a variety of connection scenarios. Install, configure, and use Oracle database management, tuning, and diagnostic tools. Use Oracle9i enhanced data management features to support advanced replication, partitioning, and parallel operations. Use Oracle9i tools to backup data while providing uninterrupted database availability. Use Oracle9i tools to perform restore and complete recovery operations from any failure scenario. Perform troubleshooting, analysis, and problem resolution to enhance database and instance performance. Practicum Areas of Focus and Objectives Database Configuration Determine and set sizing parameters for database segments. Create and manage temporary, permanent and undo tablespaces. Stripe data files across multiple physical devices and locations. Configure the database environment to support optimal data access performance. Protect the database from loss of data from any failure scenario. Create and manage database configuration files. Oracle Network Configuration Create and manage multiple network configuration files. Configure the database instance to support shared server connections. Setup network tracing. Configure the network environment to efficiently manage user connections. Manage Oracle network processes. Configure the network environment to allow connections to multiple databases. Oracle Enterprise Manager Setup and Configuration Configure Oracle Enterprise Manager. Create an OEM Repository Use OEM to modify a database configuration. Configure OEM to manage database availability. Database Availability Create a recovery catalog using Recovery Manager. Use Recovery Manager to perform database backups. Use Recovery Manager to perform a complete database restore and recovery. Configure the TNSNAMES.ORA file to support remote connections to a catalog database using TCP. Perform a complete recovery from any database or instance failure scenario. Data Management Create and manage tablespaces to support database access activities. Manage partitioning within a database environment. Configure auditing within the database. Provide users with access to data. Provide access to data using flashback. Database Management Implement fine-grained security. Generate table, index, column, and system statistics. Manage the SGA. Manage new users. Implement Replication. Performance Management Collect instance and database statistics using STATSPACK, USTAT/UTLESTAT, and OEM Packs. Analyze statistics and modify parameters to enhance performance. Configure Resource Manager and use it to manage queries. Create and manage objects to accommodate different data access methods. Analyze and tune query performance. Standby Databases and Data Guard Create and utilize a standby database. Add data to the primary database in preparation for transfer to a standby database. Setup the standby database to use the log writer process to transfer the log stream to the standby database. Configure the network environment to allow communication between the standby database and the primary database. Open the standby database in a "Read-Only" state Pete "Controlling developers is like herding cats." Kevin Loney, Oracle DBA Handbook "Oh no, it's not. It's much harder than that!"
