Just completed the first OCM ILT course: 9i:RAC. This was the first RAC ILT in Europe, still very few people attended the course. It was nice to play with RAC for 3 days, almost same as OPS except the great Cache Fusion improvement. I liked very much starting and stopping all instances with a single command (SRVCTL) using the spfile. I did some RMAN backups too. I have also attended before the OPS ILT course. There is not much difference except that very liitle is stressed on tuning in monitoring RAC compared to OPS. There are several changes in the dynamic views related to OPS/RAC: V$PING, V$LOCK_ACTIVITY, etc. Next is 9i: Advanced PL/SQL.

Oracle has not yet decided what kind of exam there will be for OCM.
