  1. “…..or you must choose an alternative upgrade method such as export/import”, does it mean that I must use exp/imp to update my Oracle Database 9i to 12c INSTEAD OF Data Pump?
    In the other word, can I use Data Pump in Oracle Database 9i ?

  2. CORRECT ANSWERS: DE

    Reference: https://docs.oracle.com/database/121/UPGRD/intro.htm#UPGRD60047

    1.3 Oracle Database Releases That Support Direct Upgrade
    You may perform a direct upgrade to Oracle Database 12c if your current Oracle Database is release 10.2.0.5, 11.1.0.7, or release 11.2.0.2 or later. If your current Oracle Database is earlier than release 10.2.0.5, or is release 11.2.0.1, then directly upgrading to Oracle Database 12c is not supported. In this case, you are required to upgrade to an intermediate release before upgrading to the new Oracle Database 12c release, or you must choose an alternative upgrade method such as export/import.

    C answer cannot be correct as it refers to “Direct Upgrade” and because during “Manually Upgrading a Non-CDB Oracle Database”, startup upgrade is executed in step 10, whereas catctl.pl and catupgrd.sql scripts are executed in step 12.
