- B. You should reserve the newest database backup and then reserve any transaction logs which have been made since the past backup.
- C. You should operate DBCC CHECKDB.
- D. You should utilize the latest database backup to restore only the torn page. Then restore any transaction logs which have been made since the full backup.
Correct Answer: D 🗳️
You maintain a SQL Server 2008 instance that contains a database named Finance. A small percentage of data in the database is modified daily.
You need to create a read-only copy of the database for reporting purposes at the beginning of each day by ensuring that minimal disk space is used.
Which strategy should you use?
- A. Use database snapshots.
- B. Use database backup and restore along with compression.
- C. Use schema-bound views in a read-only database that resides on the same instance.
- D. Use database backup and restore.
Correct Answer: A 🗳️
You administer a SQL Server 2008 instance. The instance contains databases for a finance application and a manufacturing application. You configure the Resource Governor to limit the maximum CPU query time allowed by the applications. The administrator of the manufacturing application reports that certain reports no longer execute successfully. You need to modify the Resource Governor configuration to allow the manufacturing application to consume more CPU time.
Which Resource Governor component should you configure?
- A. The workload group that is used by the manufacturing application
- B. The workload group that is used by the finance application
- C. The workload group that is used by default
- D. The classifier function that identifies the finance application
Correct Answer: A 🗳️
You administer a SQL Server 2008 instance. The server hosts databases for several mission-critical applications.
You plan to use the Resource Governor to limit the effect of queries that are executed by Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
You need to ensure that that the following requirements are met:
- Queries initiated through SQL Server Management Studio do not exceed 20 percent of CPU utilization. - Queries initiated by the mission-critical applications are allowed to consume 100 percent of CPU utilization when required.
What should you do?
- A. Alter the default resource pool and set the MAX_CPU_PERCENT option to 80.
Assign tins resource pool to the workload group used by SQL Server Management Studio. - B. Create a new resource pool and set the MAX_CPU_PERCENT option to 20.
Assign this resource pool to the workload group used by SQL Server Management Studio. - C. Create a new resource pool and set the MAX_CPU_PERCENT option to 80.
Assign this resource pool to the workload group used by the mission-critical applications. - D. Alter the default resource pool and set the MAX_CPU_PERCENT option to 20.
Assign this resource pool to the workload group used by the mission-critical applications.
Correct Answer: B 🗳️
You maintain a SQL Server 2008 instance that contains a database named Finance. The most recent full backup was taken at 13:00 horns, a differential backup was taken at
15:00 hours, and database snapshots were created at 16:00 horns and at 17:00 hours. The backups and the database snapshots are stored on a different disk from the database files. The hard disk that contains the database files fails at 17:02 hours.
You need to restore the Finance database by ensuring minimal data loss.
What should you do?
- A. Restore the full backup and the differential backup.
- B. Restore the database snapshot from 17:00 hours.
- C. Restore the full backup.
- D. Restore the database snapshot from 16:00 hours.
