Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

Increase SGA_TARGET

Oracle 23ai manages SGA memory automatically; adjusting the SGA_TARGET or SGA_MAX_SIZE is the primary way to influence this.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Manually set SHARED_POOL_SIZE

    Why it's wrong here

    In most modern environments, manual sizing is discouraged over SGA_TARGET.

  • Drop and recreate the library cache

    Why it's wrong here

    This is not possible; it's a memory structure.

  • Rebuild the database

    Why it's wrong here

    This is excessive and unnecessary.

  • Increase SGA_TARGET

    Why this is correct

    Increasing SGA_TARGET allows the automatic shared memory manager to allocate more to the shared pool.
