DRAG DROP
You have a database named DB1. DB1 contains a table named Sales.SalesPerson that has an index named
AK_SalesPerson_rowguid. Queries that do not use the index take approximately 10 times longer to complete
than queries that use the index.
You discover that AK_SalesPerson_rowguid has severe fragmentation.
You need to recommend a solution to defragment the index. The solution must ensure that the index can be
used by queries during the defragmentation.

Select and Place:

You have an SQL Server 2014 server named SQL1.
You are designing a performance monitoring solution.
You need to monitor the following events on SQL1:

Missing column statistics
CPU performance statistics
A batch of completed Transact-SQL statements
Which two tools should you use? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.

DRAG DROP
You define a table by using the following statement.

The Teachers table contains one million records. A sample record of the XML data output is as follows:

You plan to create queries against the table based on grade.
You need to recommend which indexes should be applied to the XML fields. The solution must meet the
following requirements:
Reduce the amount of time required to query the table based on grade.
Minimize the size of the index.
What should you recommend? To answer, drag the appropriate index types to the correct fields. Each index
type 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:

You are using dynamic management views to monitor an SQL Server server named SQL1.
A database administrator named Dba1 must monitor the health of SQL1.
You need to ensure that Dba1 can access dynamic management views for SQL1. The solution must use the
principle of least privilege.
Which permissions should you assign to Dba1?

You have a server named Server1 that has 2 processors.
You plan to deploy multiple instances of SQL Server 2014 to Server1. Each instance will have multipledatabases.
You need to recommend a method to set limits on processor time for each database.
What should you include in the recommendation?
More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.

You have a customer who has several SQL Server 2012 database servers.
You are designing a data warehouse for the customer. The data warehouse will use columnstore indexes.
The customer identifies that the following must be supported for the column store indexes.
Data manipulation language (DML) statements
Nonclustered columnstore indexes
Clustered columnstore indexes
Partitioning
You need to identify which technology requires the customer to implement an SQL Server 2014 database.
What should you identify?

You have a SQL Server 2014 environment that contains 20 servers.
The corporate security policy states that all SQL Server 2014 instances must meet specific security standards.
You need to recommend a management strategy for the SQL Server 2014 servers.What should you include in the recommendation?
More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.

You are the administrator for a SQL Server 2014 instance that stores the data for an online transaction
processing sales system.
The company takes full backups every week; differential backups on the days with no full backups; and hourly
transaction backups. These backups are stored on a backup server in the company’s data center.
Every week, the company places the full backup on a tape and sends it to a third-party backup storage system.
The company is worried that a disaster might occur that could destroy their computer center and cause them to
lose orders.
You need to determine the best method for providing the smallest amount of data loss and downtime without
leasing or purchasing additional physical locations.
What should you do? More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.

You have a SQL Server 2014 environment that includes four servers. The servers are configured as shown in
the following table.

You plan to configure Policy-Based Management to enforce the following rules:
On Server1, enable SQL Server password policies and enable the default trace.
On Server3, ensure that the names of user-defined stored procedures begin with the prefix “usp_” and
ensure that all databases use a case-sensitive collation.
You need to recommend which server you must configure as a Central Management Server.
Which server should you recommend? (Each correct answer presents a complete solution. Choose all that
apply.)

You deploy a database by using SQL Server 2014. The database contains a table named Table1.
You need to recommend a solution to track all of the deletions executed on Table1. The solution must minimize
the amount of custom code required.
