Microsoft Transition Your MCTS on SQL Server 2008 to MCSA: SQL Server 2012, Part 2 Sample Questions:

1. HOTSPOT
You administer a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 database.
The database contains a table that has the following definition:

You want to export data from the table to a flat file by using the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard.
You need to ensure that the following requirements are met:
The first row of the file contains the first row of data.
Each record is of the same length.
The date follows the U.S. date format.
The file supports international characters.
What should you do? (To answer, configure the appropriate option or options in the dialog box in the answer area.)

2. You are developing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) project by using the Project Deployment Model.
The project is deployed to a single SSIS catalog, and transfers data to and from multiple databases hosted on SQL Server.
The project must be configured to be able to export data to and from five different production servers that run SQL Server 2012. Each target server requires different values for connection strings and parameters in the SSIS project.
You need to meet the requirements by using the least amount of administrative effort.
What should you do?

A) For each target server, create separate registry entry configurations. Select the registry entry at package execution time.
B) For each target server, create a separate XML configuration file. Select the XML configuration file at package execution time.
C) Create one SSIS catalog Environment. Change the values of each Environment variable at package execution time.
D) For each target server, create separate Environments in the SSIS catalog of the host SQL Server SSIS instance. Select the appropriate Environment at package execution time.

3. DRAG DROP
You are developing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package that loads data into a data warehouse hosted on Windows Azure SQL Database.
You must combine two data sources together by using the ProductID column to provide complete details for each record. The data retrieved from each data source is sorted in ascending order by the ProductID column.
You need to develop a data flow that imports the data while meeting the requirements.
How should you develop the data flow? (To answer, drag the appropriate transformation from the list of transformations to the correct location in the answer area.)

4. You administer a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 database.
You create an availability group named haContosoDbs. Your primary replica is available at Server01\Contoso01.
You need to configure the availability group to minimize transaction latency on any available secondary databases. In the event of a database failure, the designated secondary database should come online automatically.
Which Transact-SQL statement should you use?

A) Option B
B) Option D
C) Option C
D) Option A

5. Note: This question is part of a series of questions that use the same set of answer choices. An answer choice may be correct for more than one question in the series.
You administer a SQL Server 2012 server that contains a database named SalesDb. SalesDb contains a schema named Customers that has a table named Regions. A user named userA is a member of a role named Sales.
UserA is granted the Select permission on the Regions table. The Sales role is granted the Select permission on the Customers schema.
You need to ensure that the following requirements are met:
The Sales role does not have the Select permission on the Customers schema.UserA has the Select permission on the Regions table.
Which Transact-SQL statement should you use?

A) DENY SELECT ON Schema:Customers FROM UserA
B) EXEC sp_droprolemember 'Sales', 'UserA'
C) DENY SELECT ON Object::Regions FROM Sales
D) DENY SELECT ON Object::Regions FROM UserA
E) DENY SELECT OH Schema:: Customers FROM Soles
F) REVOKE SELECT ON Object::Regions FROM UserA
G) REVOKE SELECT ON Object::Regions FROM Soles
H) EXEC sp_oddrolemember 'Sales', 'UserA'
I) REVOKE SELECT ON Schema::Customers FROM UserA
J) REVOKE SELECT ON Schema:Customers FROM Soles
