You need to configure a Microsoft SQL Server instance to ensure that a user named Mail1 can send mail by using Database Mail.

Solution: You add the DatabaseMailUserRole to Mail1 in the tempdb database.

Does the solution meet the goal?

Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is B.

To configure a Microsoft SQL Server instance to allow a user to send mail using Database Mail, the user must be added to the DatabaseMailUserRole in the msdb database. Adding the user to this role in the tempdb database will not grant the necessary permissions, as the tempdb database is not where DatabaseMailUserRole is defined or used. Therefore, the solution provided does not meet the goal.

Question 2 of 342

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.

You need to configure a Microsoft SQL Server instance to ensure that a user named Mail1 can send mail by using Database Mail.

Solution: You add the DatabaseMailUserRole to Mail1 in the msdb database.

Does the solution meet the goal?

Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is A.

To allow a user named Mail1 to send mail using Database Mail in Microsoft SQL Server, the user must be a member of the DatabaseMailUserRole in the msdb database. This role provides the necessary permissions to send emails using Database Mail. Therefore, adding the DatabaseMailUserRole to Mail1 in the msdb database meets the stated goal.

Question 3 of 342

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.

You need to configure a Microsoft SQL Server instance to ensure that a user named Mail1 can send mail by using Database Mail.

Solution: You add the DatabaseMailUserRole to Mail1 in the master database.

Does the solution meet the goal?

Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is B.

To configure a Microsoft SQL Server instance so that a user can send mail using Database Mail, the user must be added to the DatabaseMailUserRole in the msdb database, not the master database. The msdb database is specifically used for managing and scheduling SQL Server agent tasks, including Database Mail. Therefore, granting the DatabaseMailUserRole to the user in the master database would not achieve the goal.

Question 4 of 342

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.

After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.

A company has a server that runs Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Web edition. The server has a default instance that hosts a database named DB1.

You need to ensure that you can perform auditing at the database level for DB1.

Solution: You migrate DB1 to the default instance on a server that runs Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Standard edition.

Does the solution meet the goal?

Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is B.

To perform auditing at the database level for DB1, you need SQL Server 2016 Standard edition or later, but it must include Service Pack 1 (SP1) or a more recent update. The scenario does not mention the inclusion of SP1, which is crucial for database level auditing support. Therefore, simply migrating DB1 to SQL Server 2016 Standard edition without SP1 does not meet the goal.

Question 5 of 342

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.

After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.

A company has a server that runs Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Web edition. The server has a default instance that hosts a database named DB1.

You need to ensure that you can perform auditing at the database level for DB1.

Solution: You migrate DB1 to a named instance on a server that runs Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Enterprise edition.

Does the solution meet the goal?

Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is B.

All editions of SQL Server, including the Web edition, support database level auditing starting from SQL Server 2016 SP1. Therefore, migrating DB1 to a named instance on a server that runs Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Enterprise edition is not necessary to achieve database level auditing for DB1.
