A. B. C. D.C.
The correct answer is C: Compartment quotas are set by Oracle.
Compartment quotas allow you to limit the amount of resources that can be used within a compartment. By setting quotas, you can control how much of each type of resource can be consumed within a compartment. This helps you manage your spending and avoid unexpected charges.
Here are more details on the other options:
A. Compartment quotas use policies that allow allocation of resources with a high level of flexibility.
This statement is correct. When you set up compartment quotas, you use policies to define the rules for resource allocation. Policies provide a high level of flexibility and control, allowing you to specify the types and amounts of resources that can be allocated within a compartment.
B. Along with compartment budgets, compartment quotas create a powerful toolset to manage your spending.
This statement is also correct. Compartment quotas and budgets are complementary tools for managing your spending in the Oracle Cloud. Quotas limit the amount of resources that can be used within a compartment, while budgets limit the total amount of spending across all compartments.
D. There are three types of quota policy statements which are set, unset and zero.
This statement is partially correct. There are three types of quota policy statements, but they are not set, unset, and zero. The correct types are:
- ALLOW: Allows a specific amount of a resource to be allocated within a compartment.
- DENY: Prevents a specific amount of a resource from being allocated within a compartment.
- REQUESTS_ONLY: Allows requests for a resource to be made, but does not actually allocate any resources.
In summary, when setting up compartment quotas, you use policies to define the rules for resource allocation with flexibility, quotas and budgets are complementary tools to manage spending, and there are three types of quota policy statements: ALLOW, DENY, and REQUESTS_ONLY. However, compartment quotas are not set by Oracle, but rather by the user who sets up the quotas.
