Course Overview

The Oracle Database 19c: ASM Administration Workshop by Oracle is designed for database administrators, storage administrators, and cloud database operators responsible for managing Oracle storage infrastructure. This course provides comprehensive training on Oracle Automatic Storage Management (ASM) architecture, covering both standard ASM and Flex ASM implementations. It aligns with the skills tested in the Oracle Certified Professional, Oracle Database 19c - Performance Management and Tuning (exam 1Z0-084), equipping professionals to manage high-availability environments. With over 430,000 Oracle Database deployments worldwide, mastery of ASM is critical for enterprises relying on Oracle RAC and cloud-based database solutions. The curriculum serves key roles including DBAs, system analysts, and IT infrastructure engineers who require deep expertise in automated storage provisioning and redundancy management.

Participants engage with core Oracle technologies including Oracle ASM Configuration Assistant (ASMCA), ASMCMD command-line utility, SQL*Plus, Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control, Oracle ADVM, and Oracle ACFS. The hands-on lab environment uses Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server setup, where students configure ASM instances, create and rebalance disk groups, and implement Flex ASM for enhanced failover capabilities. A key project involves building an ACFS file system with automatic resizing, defragmentation, and compression enabled, simulating real-world scenarios in enterprise data centers. Learners also perform point-in-time database clones using ASM snapshot technology and execute cleanup scripts to maintain metadata consistency across disk groups, ensuring operational resilience in production systems.

This workshop prepares candidates for the Oracle Database 19c - Performance Management and Tuning certification, recognized globally as a benchmark for database performance expertise. Certified professionals report average salary increases of 20–25%, with senior Oracle DBAs earning between $120,000 and $160,000 annually in North America. Koenig Solutions enhances learning outcomes with official Oracle courseware, Guaranteed-to-Run batches, and access to certified instructors for 1-on-1 mentoring. Graduates gain the advanced skills needed to optimize storage performance, support mission-critical databases, and advance into roles such as Oracle Cloud Architect or Principal Database Engineer.
