Oracle OCP 1Z0-053 Q57(ASM ASMB(Background process))

57.Which background process of a database instance, using Automatic Storage Management (ASM),
connects as a foreground process into the ASM instance?
A. ASMB
B. PMON
C. RBAL
D. SMON
Answer: A

ASM Background Processes

The following background processes are an integral part of Automatic Storage Management:

• ARBn performs the actual rebalance data extent movements in an Automatic Storage Management instance. There can be many of these processes running at a time, named ARB0, ARB1, and so on.

• ASMB runs in a database instance that is using an ASM disk group. ASMB communicates with the ASM instance, managing storage and providing statistics. ASMB can also run in the ASM instance. ASMB runs in ASM instances when the ASMCMD cp command runs or when the database instance first starts if the SPFILE is stored in ASM.

• GMON maintains disk membership in ASM disk groups.

• MARK marks ASM allocation units as stale following a missed write to an offline disk. This essentially tracks which extents require resync for offline disks.

• RBAL runs in both database and ASM instances. In the database instance, it does a global open of ASM disks. In an ASM instance, it also coordinates rebalance activity for disk groups.
