You need to ensure that all deadlocks are recorded in XML format.

What should you do?

Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answer: C

To ensure that all deadlocks are recorded in XML format, you should enable trace flag 1222 in the startup options for Microsoft SQL Server. Trace flag 1222 returns deadlock information in an XML-like format that is structured in a way similar to XML. This trace flag captures detailed deadlock information, ensuring that the data is comprehensive and organized.

Question 2 of 178

You are experiencing performance issues with the database server.

You need to evaluate schema locking issues, plan cache memory pressure points, and backup I/O problems.

What should you create?

Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answer: D

To evaluate schema locking issues, plan cache memory pressure points, and backup I/O problems effectively, you should create an Activity Monitor session in Microsoft SQL Management Studio. The Activity Monitor provides a comprehensive and immediate overview of system performance, including resource waits, recent expensive queries, and I/O activities. This allows for real-time monitoring and quick identification of performance bottlenecks across different areas.

Question 3 of 178

You have a view that includes an aggregate.

You MUST be able to change the values of columns in the view. The changes must be reflected in the tables that the view uses.

You need to ensure that you can update the view.

What should you create?

Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answer: D

To update a view that includes an aggregate, you typically need to use a DML trigger, specifically an INSTEAD OF trigger. An INSTEAD OF trigger allows you to define custom logic for INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE operations performed on the view. This is necessary because aggregates in a view mean that the data being displayed is derived and not directly modifiable. The DML trigger handles the modification of the underlying tables when a change is made to the view.

Question 4 of 178

You are experiencing performance issues with the database server.

You need to evaluate schema locking issues, plan cache memory pressure points, and backup I/O problems.

What should you create?

Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answer: C

To evaluate schema locking issues, plan cache memory pressure points, and backup I/O problems, you should create an extended events session that uses Query Editor. Extended Events provide a lightweight profiling system that can collect various types of performance data and specify conditions under which data is collected. This enables you to gather detailed and customized diagnostic information about specific areas of the database server, such as locking, memory pressure, and I/O, making it suitable for diagnosing complex performance issues.

Question 5 of 178

You have a view that includes an aggregate.

NOT You must be able to change the values of columns in the view.

The changes must be reflected in the tables that the view uses.

You need to ensure that you can update the view.

What should you create?

Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answer: D

To ensure that changes to the columns in a view containing aggregates are reflected in the tables, you need to use an INSTEAD OF trigger. This type of trigger allows you to override the default behavior of insert, update, or delete operations on the view, enabling you to apply necessary logic to correctly update the underlying tables. An INSTEAD OF trigger is required for views with aggregates because such views do not inherently support direct updates.

Stories from the certified

Charles Sirois
Canada
As this was my first certification exam, I was understandably nervous about what to expect. These study materials made the preparation process much easier, and many of the questions closely reflected those on the actual exam.
Lance Chambers
United States
Wasted about a month going through the free dump sites scattered all over reddit, half the answers were wrong and the other half were for a version of the exam that doesn't even exist anymore. Eventually gave in and paid the small fee here, and the difference was night and day.
Alisha Kelly
Italy
Honestly, I had already gone through the official documentation quite thoroughly, but still didn't feel fully confident going in. This helped things finally click for me. I realized I knew the material, but just hadn't connected all the pieces yet.
Casper Claassen
Netherlands
Used this along with Microsoft Learn and the combo worked really well. The practice questions made the stuff I'd read actually stick. Passed first attempt, no complaints from me.
Gabriele Ghesla
Italy
The content is accurate and clearly presented, and it's more affordable than competitors. The team has been incredibly responsive whenever I've had an issue, and they've been open to small changes that improve the platform.
