Order the Manual CDB Creation Steps - Exercise
Objective: Put the dependencies for a new single-instance COIN CDB in the correct order.
Use the manual Oracle AI Database 26ai creation path. This is a sequencing exercise; no database commands need to be executed. DBCA is the recommended routine creation tool.
- A. Run the reviewed CREATE DATABASE script.
- B. Select the unused SID and Oracle home; prepare and review the initialization file, authentication and storage plan.
- C. Run the documented CDB dictionary/component initialization, apply required SQL patch changes, verify the database and take a backup.
- D. Start the instance in NOMOUNT using the reviewed parameters.
- E. On Windows, create the missing service with manual instance startup and ensure the service is available.
- F. Connect as SYSDBA to the new idle instance and create the SPFILE from the reviewed PFILE.
Instructions
- Submit the six letters in execution order. Treat E as a Windows-only step; explain how the sequence changes on Linux.
- Explain why NOMOUNT precedes CREATE DATABASE and why successful creation is not the end of initialization.
- Distinguish the root/seed created here from a separately created application PDB.
