Oracle Enterprise Linux - New production exam (1Z0-402) now live:
Oracle’s new Enterprise Linux Administrator Certified Associate (OCA) certification endorses skilled Linux administrators in the knowledge and techniques required to competently manage complex enterprise-scale Linux systems, including initial installation, management of user accounts and disk space, and troubleshooting and correcting unexpected system behavior.
Earning this new Linux certification from Oracle requires the successful completion of two exams:
The second exam [403] has just successfully completed beta testing and we will be announcing its live release date shortly.
Waive one Linux OCA exam with an existing Linux certification!
Candidates holding an existing Linux certification from LPI, Linux+, Ubuntu, Red Hat, or Novell need only take one test!
The second exam (Enterprise Linux System Administration / 1Z0-403) is the only one required for those meeting these qualifications, allowing for a quick shortcut to Oracle Enterprise Linux Administrator Certified Associate (OCA) certification.
Beta testing now open for Oracle Database 11g DBAs
Candidates holding the Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certified Associate (OCA) have only one exam standing between them and an upgrade to the title of Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certified Professional (OCP): exam "Oracle Database 11g: Administration II" (1Z0-053), which has just opened in beta.
This new Oracle certification exam measures the in-depth skills and knowledge required for system specialists to back up and recover databases, configure Oracle databases for optimal recovery, administer ASM disk groups, use RMAN backups to duplicate databases, and automate tasks with the Scheduler.
