Which three actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate actions
from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)

You create an availability group named HaContoso that has replicas named Server01/HA,
Server02/HA, and Server03/HA,
Currently, Server01l/HA is the primary replicA
You need to ensure that the following requirements are met:

• Backup operations occur on Server02/HA
• If Server02/HA is unavailable, backup operations occur on Server03/HA
• Backup operations do not occur on Server01/HA
How should you configure HaContoso?

You administer a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 environment that contains a production SQL Server
2005 instance named SQL2005 and a development SQL Server 2012 instance named SQL2012.

Database mirroring is configured in High-Safety mode with Automatic Failover between the
following three servers:
SQL1 is the Principal server.
SQL2 is the mirror server.
SQL3 is the witness server.
You need to upgrade SQL1 and SQL2 to SQL Server 2012. You need to ensure that downtime is
