Q:

You are the administrator of eight SQL Server 2000 computers. You configure alerts on each server so that various problem conditions will be reported if they occur.You create 20 operators on one of the servers. You configure these operators by using the e-mail and pager contact information for the employees in your department. You configure the alerts on the server to send e-mail messages and pager messages to the appropriate operators.You need to configure the same 20 operators on the other seven servers. You want to do this with a minimum amount of administrative time.What should you do?

A) Use SQL Server Enterprise Manager to script all of the operators. Use SQL Query Analyzer to run the script on the other seven servers. B) Detach the msdb database from the first server. Copy the database to the other seven servers. Attach the database on all eight servers.
C) Use snapshot replication to replicate the msdb database from the first server to the other seven servers. D) Use SQL ServerEnterprise Manager on a single client computer to create the operators on each server.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Use SQL Server Enterprise Manager to script all of the operators. Use SQL Query Analyzer to run the script on the other seven servers.

Explanation:

Transact-SQL scripts can be used to create defined operators or alerts. Scripting all the
predefined operators and alerts and copying them to the servers if the same group of operators is responsible for responding to the same alerts on other servers can save time.

Q:

You are an administrator of a SQL Server 2000 computer. The server contains a database that stores inventory data. Another database administrator has created a number of scheduled jobs to maintain the inventory database. Each weeknight the following jobs occur.


- A BULK INSERT job imports data at 10:00 P.M
- Indexes are rebuilt at 10:15 P.M
- Data integrity checks are performed at 10:30 P.M
- A differential backup is performed at 10:45 P.M
- A DBCC SHRINKDATABASE job runs at 11:00 P.M.


You notice that the final job often fails and returns the following error message: "Server: Msg 3140, Level 16, State 3. Could not adjust the space allocation for file  'inventory_data'."You need to ensure that the final job runs without errors.

What should you do?

A) Modify the DBCC SHRINKDATABASE job so that it uses DBCC SHRINKFILE statement to shrink each file individually. B) Create a new DBCC SHRINKFILE job to shrink the inventory_data file. Schedule the new job to run at the same time as the DBCC SHRINKDATABASE job.
C) Increase the time between the differential backup and the DBCC SHRINKDATABASE job. D) Increase the time between the data integrity checks and the differential backup.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Increase the time between the differential backup and the DBCC SHRINKDATABASE job.

Explanation:

The DBCC SHRINKDATABSE cannot be executed until the previous job step, the differential backup, has been completed. We should increase the time between these two job steps, or even better configure the last job step to run only after the differential backup has been completed.

 

Note: The DBCC SHRINKDATABASE statement shrinks data files on a per-file basis but shrinks log files as if all the log files existed in one contiguous log pool. The target size for the data and log files cannot be smaller than the minimum size of a file that was specified when the file was originally created, or the last explicit size set with a file size changing operation such as the ALTER DATABASE statement with the MODIFY FILE option or the DBCC SHRINKFILE statement.

Q:

You are the administrator of a SQL Server 2000 computer. You configure SQL Server to perform C2 auditing. Audit logs are saved in the C:MSSQLAudit folder.The server functions normally for several days, but then the MSSQLServer service shuts down without warning. You cannot restart the service.You need to restart the MSSQLServer service. What should you do?

A) Start the MSSQLServer service manually by using the -m startup option. B) Start the MSSQLServer service manually by using the -s startup option.
C) Set the SQLServerAgent service's startup method to Disabled. Start the MSSQLServer service. D) Delete the audit logs from the C:\MSSQL\Audit folder. Start the MSSQLServer service.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Delete the audit logs from the C:\MSSQL\Audit folder. Start the MSSQLServer service.

Explanation:

SQL Server functioned for several days but now it is impossible to start it.
The most likely cause is the size of the auditing log files. The maximum file size for the audit log is fixed at 200 megabytes (MB). When the audit log file reaches 200 MB, a new file will be created and the old file handle will be closed. If the directory fills up, then the instance of Microsoft SQL Server is stopped. The system administrator needs to either free up disk space for the audit log before restarting the instance of SQL Server or restart the instance of SQL Server

Note 1: SQL Server Agent monitors itself and the SQL Server service.
SQL Server Agent can restart the local instance of SQL Server if it has terminated for reasons other than a typical shutdown.

Note 2: Start the MSSQLServer service manually by using the -f startup option would start the service with minimal configuration. It could be used when some configuration errors have been made and the MSSQLServer service isn't able to start.

Q:

You are the database administrator for a financial services company. Employees enter data 24 hours a day into a SQL Server 2000 database. These employees report slower response times when new account information is gathered from branch offices and added to the database. You currently use the following BULK INSERT statement to add the account information.BULK INSERT finance.dbo.customersFROM 'd:bulkaccts143_10142000.txt'WITH DATAFILETYPE = 'char', FIELDTERMINATOR = 't', ROWTERMINATOR = 'n', TABLOCK You want to ensure that response times do not slow when new account information is added to the database. What should you do?

A) Add the BATCHSIZE option to the BULK INSERT statement, and then set the option equal to 10 percent of the number of rows to be loaded. B) Add the ROWS_PER_BATCH option to the BULK INSERT statement, and then set the option equal to 10 percent of the number of rows to be loaded.
C) Drop the indexes for the Customers table before the data load, and then re-create the indexes after the data load is complete. D) Remove the TABLOCK option from the BULK INSERT statement.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Remove the TABLOCK option from the BULK INSERT statement.

Explanation:

The TABLOCK hint increases the number of locks during the adding process. This is the reason why response time are slows down during this process. By removing the TABLOCK hint the default more granular row-level lock will be used. This would decrease the scope of the locks which would result in less waiting jobs and performance would improve.


Note: The BULK INSERT statement is used to copy a data file into a database table or view in a format specified by the user. The BULK INSERT statement accepts the TABLOCK hint, which allows the user to specify the locking behavior that the BULK INSERT statement should use. TABLOCK specifies that a bulk update table-level lock is taken for the duration of the bulk copy. If TABLOCK is not specified, the default uses row-level locks.
