You administer a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 instance named SQL2012 that hosts an OLTP database
of 1 terabyte in size.
The database is modified by users only from Monday through Friday from 09:00 hours to 17:00
hours. Users modify more than 30 percent of the data in the database during the week.
Backups are performed as shown in the following schedule:

The Finance department plans to execute a batch process every Saturday at 09:00 hours. This batch
process will take a maximum of 8 hours to complete.
The batch process will update three tables that are 10 GB in size. The batch process will update
these tables multiple times.
When the batch process completes, the Finance department runs a report to find out whether the
batch process has completed correctly.
You need to ensure that if the Finance department disapproves the batch process, the batch
operation can be rolled back in the minimum amount of time.
What should you do on Saturday?

requirements are met:
No more than 5 minutes worth of transactions are lost.
Data can be recovered by using the minimum amount of administrative effort.
What should you do? Choose all that apply.
