New Features for Administrators - Question 006

B. It is possible to version enable a table pertaining to SYS.

C. There are as many segments as versions for the same base table.

D. It is possible to create workspaces if there is no version-enabled table in the database.

Answer: D

Explanation:

It’s possible to create a workspace if there is no version-enabled table in the database.

A: The unit of versioning is the table, not the schema.

B: It is not possible to version enable a table in SYS schema.

C: This statement about the same amount of segments as versions for the same base table is incorrect.
