A user session executes a SQL statement that performs a large sort operation. What can be determined from these settings? (Select the best two answers.)

  • Answer & Explanation
  • Report
Answer : [C, E]
Explanation :
When the WORKAREA_SIZE_POLICY parameter is set to AUTO (the default setting), APMM will dynamically size the SQL work area. Therefore, the amount of memory actually allocated is unknown. The *_AREA_SIZE parameters have no meaning unless the WORKAREA_SIZE_ POLICY is set to MANUAL.
