You need to transport performance data from a Standard Edition to an Enterprise Edition database. What is the recommended method to do this?

AExport the data by using expdp from Statspack and import it by using $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/awrload into the AWR repository.

BExport the data by using expdp from the ftatspack repository and import it by using impdp into the AWR repository.

CExport the data by using the expdp utility and parameter file spuexp.par from the Statspack repository and import it by using impdp into Export the data by using expdp from
the Statspack repository and import it by using impdp into the AWR repository.

DExport the data by using the exp utility and parameter file spuexp.par from the Statspack repository and import it by using imp into a dedicated Statspack schema on the destination.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

To transport performance data from an Oracle Database Standard Edition, which uses Statspack, to an Enterprise Edition database, which uses AWR, you must consider the compatibility of data structures and repository schemas between these tools. The recommended method is:

D (Correct): Export the data using the exp utility with a parameter file appropriate for Statspack (like spuexp.par) from the Statspack repository and import it into a dedicated Statspack schema on the destination. Since Statspack and AWR use different schemas, it's not recommended to import Statspack data directly into the AWR repository.

The other options are incorrect because:

A (Incorrect): expdp is not designed to export from Statspack, and awrload is intended for loading from an AWR export file, not a Statspack export.

B (Incorrect): Although expdp and impdp are used for exporting and importing data, the AWR repository schema is different from the Statspack schema, so importing Statspack data directly into the AWR repository is not recommended.

C (Incorrect): Using expdp to export from Statspack and then importing directly into the AWR repository is not the correct approach due to the schema differences between Statspack and AWR.

Yeah, I agree. The question is focused on a very specific database administration task, and we'll need to understand the differences between Statspack and AWR, as well as the recommended utilities for exporting and importing data.

But we need to be careful with the parameters and ensure a smooth transition.

This question is a bit tricky, as it's asking about the recommended method for transporting performance data from a Standard Edition to an Enterprise Edition database. I'm not too familiar with the specifics of Statspack and AWR, so I'll need to think this through carefully.
