A full backup of your database named DB1 is created automatically at midnight every day. Differential backups of DB1 occur twice each day at 10:00 and at 16:00. A database snapshot is created every day at noon. A developer reports that he accidentally dropped the Pricelist table in DB1 at 12:30. The last update to Pricelist occurred one week ago. You need to recover the Pricelist table. You want to achieve this goal by using the minimum amount of administrative effort. You must also minimize the amount of data that is lost. What should you do?

Your company uses a mission-critical database named DB1, which is located on a server named SQL1. You want to mirror DB1 on a second server named SQL2. Before you can establish database mirroring, you need to prepare DB1 and the servers for mirroring. Which three actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose three.)

Your company has a network that consists of two domains named DOM1 and DOM2. There is no trust relationship between DOM1 and DOM2. DOM1 contains a server named SQL1. DOM2 contains a server named SQL2. Both servers run SQL Server 2005. The SQL Server instance on SQL1 uses the DOM1SQLService1 service account. The SQL Server instance on SQL2 uses the DOM2SQLService2 service account. There are no mirroring endpoints on either server. SQL1 contains a database named DB1. You want to mirror DB1 to SQL2 by using high-protection mode without a witness. You need to create the database mirroring endpoints and configure security on all participating server instances. What should you do?

You work at the regional sales office. You are responsible for importing and exporting data in SQL Server 2005 databases. The main office asks you to send them a text file that contains updated contact information for the customers in your region. The database administrator in the main office asks that the data be sorted by the StateProvince, Surname, and FirstName columns. You need to satisfy these requirements by using the least amount of effort. What should you do?

You are writing a query that returns data from tables in a SQL Server 2005 database. Some of the data is stored in relational columns, and some of the data is stored in XML data type columns. Your query needs to return a relational result set that contains data from relational fields and attribute values from XML data type columns. Which two methods of the XML data type should you use? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)

You are a database developer for a company that manufactures bicycles.

You are creating a Web application that will retrieve data from a database named AdventureWorks. The application connects to a database server that is running SQL Server 2005. One of the functions of your application will allow shift supervisors to see how many bicycles were manufactured during the current shift. A user named Tom creates a stored procedure named usp_GetPersonData in the dbo schema. You are creating an HTTP endpoint that exposes a Web method named PersonData. This Web method allows client applications to access the stored procedure. You use the following statement to create the endpoint.

CREATE ENDPOINT SQLEP_AWPersons AS HTTP (PATH = ‘/AWpersons’, AUTHENTICATION
= (INTEGRATED), PORTS = (CLEAR), SITE = ‘SQL1’) FOR SOAP (WEBMETHOD ”
(NAME=”), BATCHES = DISABLED, WSDL = DEFAULT, DATABASE = ‘AdventureWorks’,
NAMESPACE = ‘http://Adventure-Works/Persons’) You need to specify the correct WEBMETHOD and
NAME to create the endpoint. Which command should you use?

You use Service Broker to manage data requests between SQL Server 2005 databases. You need to make changes to objects for an existing service. You want to ensure that no messages can be received by the service until the changes are complete. What should you do?

You are creating a Web-based application to manage data aggregation for reports. The application connects to a SQL Server 2005 database named DataManager. One page in the application has controls that execute stored procedures in a database named ReportingDatabase. There is an existing Service Broker connection between the DataManager database and ReportingDatabase. You want to add two new message types to the existing service. In each database, you create message types named ProcessReport and SendResult. You need to add the two new message types to the existing service. What should you do first?

The sales department and the finance department are located in different buildings. The two departments are connected by a 2?megabit network. Both departments use SQL Server 2005. The sales department records all sales activities in a database named DB1. DB1 contains 380 tables and has a size of 10 GB. The finance department has read-only access to four tables in DB1 for reporting purposes. The finance department runs queries throughout the day and needs the data to be as up to date as possible. Users in the finance department tell you that report execution is slow. To optimize network capacity, your department decides to provide copies of these four tables to the finance department. You need to provide copies of these tables. You want to achieve this goal by using the copy method that uses the least amount of network bandwidth. What should you do?
