Domain overview
This domain covers OCI Observability and Management: Monitoring metrics and alarms, the Events service and its rules, Logging and Log Search, Notifications topics, and Resource Manager stacks. Questions are scenario-based, asking you to pick correct destinations, prerequisite steps, and feature behavior rather than recite definitions.
Exam objectives
Events service rules invoking Functions, Streaming, or Notifications as rule actions
Monitoring alarms: metric queries, thresholds, severity, and the suppression feature
Logging, Log Groups, and Log Search for auditing and troubleshooting resources
Resource Manager stacks: plan, apply, destroy, and drift detection on Terraform configurations
Assuming Events can call a Function directly without first creating the rule and granting the service permission to invoke it
Confusing alarm suppression with alarm disabling; suppression pauses notifications for a window, it does not delete the alarm
Treating Resource Manager as only apply/destroy, missing that plan and drift detection are also stack operations

Which TWO actions can be performed using OCI Resource Manager stacks? (Choose two.)
2A company uses OCI Resource Manager to manage its cloud infrastructure using Terraform. A developer has modified a Terraform configuration file locally and needs to preview the changes that Resource Manager will make to the cloud environment before actually applying them. Which Resource Manager job type should be executed?
3Your development team wants to automatically trigger a serverless function whenever a new object is uploaded to an OCI Object Storage bucket. Which OCI service acts as the foundational router to capture this object upload event and invoke the function?
4You need to ingest custom application logs from multiple compute instances into OCI Logging. What is the correct sequence of components you must configure within OCI?
5An OCI administrator needs to be notified via email whenever CPU utilization on a critical production compute instance exceeds 90% for a sustained period of 5 minutes. Which combination of services should the administrator configure to achieve this?
6When designing a comprehensive tagging strategy in OCI, which THREE practices or features should you implement for effective governance and cost management? (Choose three.)
7Which THREE features are core capabilities of the OCI Audit service? (Choose three.)
8What is the purpose of the 'Tags' feature in OCI resource management?
9Which service allows you to view the audit logs of all API calls made in your tenancy?
10You want to notify an external HTTP endpoint whenever an alarm fires. What should you do?
11Which OCI service is best suited for real-time monitoring of CPU and Memory utilization on a Compute instance?
12You need to be alerted only when the average CPU utilization of a cluster of instances exceeds 80% for 5 consecutive minutes. Which alarm feature achieves this?
13You have an OCI alarm that is stuck in the 'Firing' state. What is the most likely cause?
14You are troubleshooting a deployment failure in Resource Manager. Where can you see the detailed Terraform output logs?
15You need to ensure that a resource's cost can be tracked. What must you do after defining a tag?
16You are using Service Connector Hub to move data from Logging to Object Storage. What is the primary benefit of this approach?
17When configuring an alarm, what does the 'suppression' feature do?
18Which OCI service acts as a centralized dashboard to view health status of all OCI services in your region?
19What is the default retention period for audit logs in OCI?
20You are using the Events service to trigger a Function. What is a required step before this can work?
21Which THREE actions are required to successfully set up an Alarm?
22Which service is best used to monitor a public-facing website endpoint for availability?
23Which TWO types of tags are available in OCI?
24Which TWO items are components of an OCI Alarm?
25Which THREE services can be used as a destination for the Events service?
26Which THREE options are available for creating a Resource Manager stack?
27Which THREE things must be configured to use Logging Analytics?
28Which THREE protocols are supported for Notifications subscriptions?
29Which THREE aspects of a Terraform stack can you modify in a Resource Manager job?
30Which TWO OCI resources are automatically tracked by the Audit service?
31A platform team runs a compute cluster in a single OCI region. They need a dashboard that charts CPU utilization for every instance in a specific compartment and automatically includes new instances launched into that compartment next week, without anyone editing the widget later. Which OCI Monitoring feature should they use for the metric widget?
32An operations team wants a single OCI alarm to notify them when average CPU utilization across a compartment's web tier exceeds 80 percent for a sustained period, and to stop notifying once the condition clears. The team also wants to avoid duplicate pages during short spikes. Which two configurations satisfy these requirements? (Choose two.)
33A security analyst must prove which user deleted a specific Object Storage bucket two weeks ago, including the source IP address and the exact request time. Which OCI service and action should the analyst use?
Be able to configure an Events rule with a valid destination, build a Monitoring alarm with correct metric and threshold, and manage a Resource Manager stack through plan, apply, and drift detection. The key is knowing each service's prerequisites and supported destinations.
