You administer multiple SQL Server 2008 instances.
You plan to install a SQL Server 2008 mission-critical cluster on two cluster-ready nodes. The mission-critical cluster requires constant availability.
You need to configure the SQL Server cluster to failover by ensuring that the service disruption is minimized.
Which failover option should you use?

• A. Allow failback only during business horns
• B. Allow failback only during non-business hours
• C. Prevent automatic failback
• D. Immediately allow failback

You administer a SQL Server 2008 instance.
A stored procedure is used as the data source for a report that is frequently executed during business hours. Users report that the data returned by the report is inconsistent. You discover that the
inconsistencies are caused by phantom reads.
You need to ensure that the report returns consistent results without affecting other users.
What should you do?

• A. Modify the stored procedure to use the Snapshot isolation level.
• B. Configure the database for Auto Update Statistics asynchronously.
• C. Configure the database for Read Committed Snapshot isolation.
• D. Modify the stored procedure to use the Repeatable Read isolation level.

You maintain a SQL Server 2008 instance that contains a database named Finance. The data file and the transaction log file are located on the E: drive. The E: drive has only 5 percent available space.
You need to move both files to the V: drive.
Which procedure should you use?

• A. Run the following Transact-SQL statement. ALTER DATABASE Finance SET RESTRICTED_USER WITH ROLLBACK_IMMEDIATE; Move the data file and transaction log file to the new location. Run the following Transact-SQL statements. ALTER DATABASE Finance MODIFY FILE ( NAME = Finance_Data, FILENAME = 'v:\SQLServer\Finance_Data.mdf'); ALTER DATABASE Finance SET MULTI_USER;
• B. Stop the SQL Server Service. Move the data file and transaction log file to the new location. Start the SQL Server service. Run the following Transact-SQL statement. EXEC sp_attach_db @dbname = N'Finance', @filename1 = N'v:\SQLServer\Finance_Data.mdf', @filename2 = N'v:\SQLServer\Finance_Log.ldf';
• C. Stop the SQL Server service. Move the data file to the new location. Start the SQL Server service. Run the following Transact-SQL statement. EXEC sp_attach_single_file_db @dbname = N'Finance', @physname = N'v:\SQLServer\Finance_Data.mdf';
• D. Run the following Transact-SQL statement. ALTER DATABASE Finance SET OFFLINE WITH ROLLBACK_IMMEDIATE; Move the data file and transaction log file to the new location. Run the following Transact-SQL statements. ALTER DATABASE Finance MODIFY FILE (NAME = Finance_Data, FILENAME = 'v:\SQLServer\Finance_Data.mdf'); ALTER DATABASE Finance MODIFY FILE (NAME = Finance_Log, FILENAME = 'v:\SQLServer\Finance_Log.ldf'); ALTER DATABASE Finance SET ONLINE;

You administer a SQL Server 2008 instance that contains a database named Sales.
A SQL Server login named SalesAppLogin maps to a database user named SalesAppUser in the Sales database.
You need to ensure that the database user can perform only the following tasks:
- Execute all stored procedures that currently exist in the Sales database. - Execute all stored procedures that will be created in the Sales database.
What should you do?

• A. Grant the appropriate object-level permissions to SalesAppUser.
• B. Add SalesAppUser to the appropriate fixed database roles.
• C. Grant the appropriate server-level permissions to SalesAppLogin.
• D. Grant the appropriate database-level permissions to SalesAppUser.

You configure a SQL Server 2008 instance that contains a database named Customers. The Customers database experiences deadlock problems.
You need to capture the deadlock information to the SQL Server error log.
What should you do?

• A. Configure a Data Collector Set and then restart the SQL Server instance.
• B. Enable the Windows Event Collector service.
• C. Configure trace flags and then restart the SQL Server instance.
• D. Enable file system auditing.
