Microsoft Transition Your MCTS on SQL Server 2008 to MCSA: SQL Server 2012, Part 1 Sample Questions:

1. DRAG AND DROP You administer a Microsoft SQL Server database that is used by an application. Users of the application report performance issues. You need to choose the appropriate tool for performance-tuning of SQL Server databases. Which tool or tools should you use? (To answer, drag the appropriate tool or tools to their corresponding task or tasks in the answer area. Each tool may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.)
Select and Place:


2. You administer a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 database. You configure Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) on the Orders database by using the following statements:
CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'MyPassword1!'
CREATE CERTIFICATE TDE_Certificate WITH SUBJECT = 'TDE Certificate';
BACKUP CERTIFICATE TDE_Certificate TO FILE = ''d:\TDE_Certificate.cer'
WITH PRIVATE KEY (FILE = 'D:\TDE_Certificate.key', ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD =
'MyPassword1!');
CREATE DATABASE ENCRYPTION KEY
WITH ALGORITHM = AES_256
ENCRYPTION BY SERVER CERTIFICATE TDE_Certificate;
ALTER DATABASE Orders SET ENCRYPTION ON;
You attempt to restore the Orders database and the restore fails. You copy the encryption file to the original location. A hardware failure occurs and so a new server must be installed and configured. After installing SQL Server to the new server, you restore the Orders database and copy the encryption files to their original location. However, you are unable to access the database. You need to be able to restore the database. Which Transact-SQL statement should you use before attempting the restore?

A) ALTER DATABASE Master SET ENCRYPTION OFF;
B) CREATE CERTIFICATE TDE_Certificate FROM FILE = 'd:\TDE_Certificate.cer';
C) CREATE CERTIFICATE TDE_Certificate WITH SUBJECT = 'TDE Certificate'; USE Orders; CREATE DATABASE ENCRYPTION KEY
WITH ALGORITHM = AES_256
ENCRYPTION BY SERVER CERTIFICATE TDE_Certificate;
D) CREATE CERTIFICATE TDE_Certificate FROM FILE = 'd:\TDE_Certificate.cer' WITH PRIVATE KEY (FILE = 'D:\TDE_Certificate.key', DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'MyPassword1!');


3. You develop a database for a travel application. You need to design tables and other database objects. You create the Airline_Schedules table. You need to store the departure and arrival dates and times of flights along with time zone information. What should you do?

A) Add an INCLUDE clause to the index.
B) Include a SET FORCEPLAN ON statement before you run the query.
C) Add a columnstore index to cover the query.
D) Add a FORCESEEK hint to the query.
E) Include a SET STATISTICS PROFILE ON statement before you run the query.
F) Enable the Optimize for ad hoc workloads option.
G) Add a HASH hint to the query.
H) Add a LOOP hint to the query.
I) Add a FORCESCAN hint to the Attach query.
J) Cover the unique clustered index with a columnstore index.


4. You administer a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 database that contains a table named OrderDetail. You discover that the NCI_OrderDetail_CustomerID non-clustered index is fragmented. You need to reduce fragmentation. You need to achieve this goal without taking the index offline. Which Transact-SQL batch should you use?

A) ALTER INDEX ALL ON OrderDetail REBUILD
B) CREATE INDEX NCI_OrderDetail_CustomerID ON OrderDetail.CustomerID WITH DROP EXISTING
C) ALTER INDEX NCI_OrderDetail_CustomerID ON OrderDetail.CustomerID REORGANIZE
D) ALTER INDEX NCI_OrderDetail_CustomerID ON OrderDetail.CustomerID REBUILD


5. You are the lead database administrator (DBA) of a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 environment. All DBAs are members of the DOMAIN\JrDBAs Active Directory group. You grant DOMAIN\JrDBAs access to the SQL Server. You need to create a server role named SpecialDBARole that can perform the following functions:
View all databases.
View the server state.
Assign GRANT, DENY, and REVOKE permissions on logins.
You need to add DOMAIN\JrDBAs to the server role. You also need to provide the least level of privileges necessary. Which SQL statement or statements should you use? Choose all that apply.

A) GRANT VIEW SERVER STATE, VIEW ANY DATABASE TO [SpecialDBARole];
B) CREATE SERVER ROLE [SpecialDBARole] AUTHORIZATION securityadmin;
C) CREATE SERVER ROLE [SpecialDBARole] AUTHORIZATION serveradmin;
D) ALTER SERVER ROLE [SpecialDBARole] ADD MEMBER [DOMAIN\JrDBAs];
E) CREATE SERVER ROLE [SpecialDBARole] AUTHORIZATION setupadmin;
