Question 1 of 41

DRAG DROP -

You are editing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package that contains a task with a sensitive property.

You need to create a project parameter and configure it so that its value is encrypted when it is deployed to the SSIS catalog.

Question 2 of 41

DRAG DROP -

You are developing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package that imports data into a data warehouse. You are developing the part of the SSIS package that populates the ProjectDates dimension table.

The business key of the ProjectDates table is the ProjectName column. The business user has given you the dimensional attribute behavior for each of the four columns in the ProjectDates table:

✑ ExpectedStartDate- New values should be tracked over time.

✑ ActualStartDate - New values should not be accepted.

✑ ExpectedEndDate - New values should replace existing values.

ActualEndDate - New values should be tracked over time.

You use the SSIS Slowly Changing Dimension Transformation.

You must configure the Change Type value for each source column.

Which settings should you select? (To answer, select the appropriate setting or settings in the answer area. Each Change Type may be used once, more than once, or not at all.)

Question 3 of 41

DRAG DROP -

You are designing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package. The package moves order-related data to a staging table named Order. Every night the staging data is truncated and then all the recent orders from the online store database are inserted into the staging table.

Your package must meet the following requirements:

✑ If the truncate operation fails, the package execution must stop and report an error.

✑ If the Data Flow task that moves the data to the staging table fails, the entire refresh operation must be rolled back.

✑ For auditing purposes, a log entry must be entered in a SQL log table after each execution of the Data Flow task.

The Transaction Option property for the package is set to Required.

You need to design the package to meet the requirements.

How should you design the control flow for the package? (To answer, drag the appropriate setting from the list of settings to the correct location or locations in the answer area.)

Question 4 of 41

You are developing a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package that imports data into a data warehouse hosted on SQL Azure.

The package uses a Foreach container to process text files found in a folder. The package must be deployed to a single server by using the Project Deployment model.

Multiple SQL Server Agent jobs call the package. Each job is executed on a different schedule. Each job passes a different folder path to the package.

You need to configure the package to accept the folder path from each job.

Which package configuration should you use?

    Correct Answer: D

    To configure the package to accept the folder path from each SQL Server Agent job, you should use a Parent Package Variable. This approach allows the parent process (the SQL Server Agent job) to pass the folder path dynamically to the SSIS package at runtime. This ensures that each job can specify a different folder path without hardcoding or relying on external configuration files, registry entries, or environment variables that might complicate the deployment and execution across different environments.

Question 5 of 41

DRAG DROP -

You are building a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package to load data from all files that are automatically copied to a directory each night through an external FTP process.

You need to load data from all copied files to a destination table in SQL Server.

Which three steps should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)
