You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) solution that will load multiple
Online Transactional Processing (OLTP) data sources into a SQL Server data mart.
You have the following requirements:
Ensure that the process supports the creation of an exception report that details possible
duplicate key values, null ratios within columns, and column-length distributions of values.
Ensure that users can generate the exception report in an XML format.
Use the minimum development effort.
You need to design the SSIS solution to meet the requirements.
What should you do? (More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.)

You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) solution. The solution will
contain an SSIS project that includes several SSIS packages. Each SSIS package will
define the same connection managers and variables.
You have the following requirements:
The deployment model must support changing the content of connection strings by using
parameters at execution time.

The deployment model must automatically log events to the SSISDB database.
Maximize performance at execution time.
You need to design a solution that meets the requirements.

HOTSPOT
You are setting role permissions for a SQL Server Analysis Service (SSAS) cube.
You plan to grant Read access for specific attribute members only to specific Active
Directory security groups.
You need to enter a Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) expression to configure the
attribute member access.
On which tab should you enter the MDX expression? To answer, select the appropriate tab
in the answer area.

You have a SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) 2008 instance integrated with an
Internet-facing Microsoft SharePoint 2010 farm. PerformancePoint Services and Excel
Services are installed and configured.
You need to upgrade to SSRS 2012 with the minimum downtime and hardware
requirements.
What should you do? (More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST
answer.)

You are redesigning a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) database that contains a cube
named Sales. Before the initial deployment of the cube, partition design was optimized for
processing time. The cube currently includes five partitions named FactSalesl through
FactSales5. Each partition contains from 1 million to 2 million rows.
The FactSales5 partition contains the current year’s information. The other partitions contain
information from prior years; one year per partition. Currently, no aggregations are defined
on the partitions.
You remove fact rows that are more than five years old from the fact table in the data source
and configure query logs on the SSAS server.
Several queries and reports are running very slowly.
You need to optimize the partition structure and design aggregations to improve query
performance and minimize administrative overhead.

answer.)

HOTSPOT
A school stores information about teachers, students, classes, and enrollments in a
Windows Azure SQL Database database. The database includes a table that maps the user
IDs of teachers to the subjects they teach.
Teachers access reports in a SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) instance by using their
credentials.
You are developing a report that displays a table of class enrollments for a specific subject.
The report will prompt teachers to select from their mapped subjects. The table is based on
a dataset named ClassData. To minimize report execution time, the ClassData dataset has
been configured to cache all class enrollment data.
You need to ensure that the report parameter displays the correct subjects for each teacher.
Which item should you configure? To answer, select the appropriate item in the answer area.

A group of report writers develop reports. The report writers currently use Report Builder 1.0
and report models. The report writers are not trained on SQL Server query writing. Their
report assignments come from various departments within the organization.
The company is upgrading to SQL Server 2012 with SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS)
in native mode. After the upgrade, reports will retrieve data from a large new data
warehouse that will reside on an instance of the SQL Server 2012 Database Engine.
Reports for each department will retrieve data from only a subset of the data warehouse
tables.
You are designing the data access strategy. You have the following requirements:
Ensure that report writers can create only reports that display data which they have
database permissions to view.
Minimize the effort required to update connection strings for all reports developed by the
report writers.
Minimize the number of fields visible in a specific report for report writers who work for
multiple departments.
You need to design the data access strategy.
What should you do? (More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST

A company runs SQL Server Database Engine and SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS)
in native mode. Reports are based on data that is cached in multiple shared datasets.
Source data is purged each day at midnight for regulatory compliance purposes. The shared
datasets may continue to cache data that should not be used in reports. Shared report
schedules are often paused during nightly server maintenance windows.
Reports must not return purged data.
You need to create a fully automated solution to ensure that reports do not deliver purged
data.

answer.)

You are designing a complex report that displays sales metrics for a customer hierarchy.
The customer hierarchy has six levels and contains approximately 1 million members.
You have the following requirements:
Allow users to easily display and navigate data.
Minimize report processing time.
Simplify the report design and maintenance processes.
You need to design a report that meets the requirements.
How should you design the report? (More than one answer choice may achieve the goal.

HOTSPOT
You are using a new installation of SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) to create three
sales reports that consume data from a stored procedure. The stored procedure is defined in
a Windows Azure SQL Database.
All reports must pass USA to the Country parameter of the stored procedure. Users cannot
change the Country report parameter value.
You need to configure the report parameter properties.
How should you configure the report parameter properties? To answer, select the
appropriate setting or settings in the answer area.
