SQL Server 2008 70-448 Dump2

The master database in SQL Server stores important system information and metadata. By backing up the master database, you ensure that you have a copy of this critical information in case of a failure. This allows for easier recovery and restoration of the SQL Server instance. Backing up the local or system databases may not include all the necessary system information, so it is important to specifically back up the master database.

Adding a Data Viewer object to the Data Flow task allows you to view the output data of the Fuzzy Grouping transformation, which will help in debugging the package. It provides a way to visually inspect the data at that point in the package and verify if the Fuzzy Grouping transformation is producing the expected results. This can help identify any issues or errors in the transformation and aid in troubleshooting.

The correct answer is to develop a data source view and select only the required tables and views. This approach allows for the creation of a report model that includes only the necessary tables and views, limiting the access and complexity for the users. By selecting only the required tables and views, the report model can be optimized for performance and ease of use. Developing a DataSet or DataTable using the Web Service to Schema(s) option would not provide the same level of control over the tables and views included in the report model.

The correct answer is to increase the two Control Flow tasks and one Data Flow task to a container and change the TransactionOption property of the container to Required. This is because the question states that the package should be altered, and the best way to group tasks together in SSIS is by using a container. By setting the TransactionOption property to Required, it ensures that all tasks within the container participate in the same transaction, meaning they will either all succeed or all fail together.

The correct answer is "You should select ProcessFull." When altering the design of the data mining structure, selecting ProcessFull will ensure that the changes are fully processed and applied to the data mining model and underlying case table. This option is necessary to accurately test and examine different data mining theories.

To create a failure recovery plan for packages deployed to a SQL Server, it is important to perform a backup of the master database. The master database contains crucial system configuration information and metadata about all other databases on the server. By backing up the master database, you ensure that you have a copy of this important information in case of any failures or issues. This backup will help in restoring the server to a known state and recovering the packages effectively.

To ensure that the report server caches the report for 40 minutes at the beginning of the request, you should run report execution caching for the report. This means that the report will be stored in the cache for a specified period of time, allowing subsequent requests for the same report to be served from the cache instead of generating the report again, saving time and resources. This caching mechanism can improve the performance and reduce the load on the server.

The correct answer is to change the CLUSTERING_METHOD. The CLUSTERING_METHOD determines the algorithm used to perform the clustering in the Microsoft Clustering mining model. By changing the CLUSTERING_METHOD, you can switch from the Scalable K-Means algorithm to the Non-scalable K-Means algorithm, or vice versa. This can affect the performance and accuracy of the clustering in the data mining structure.

The correct answer is to change the RSReportServer.config file for authentication. This is because the RSReportServer.config file is the configuration file for SQL Server Reporting Services and contains settings for various aspects of the service, including authentication. By making changes to this file, you can configure the sample to use Kerberos authentication, which is the desired authentication method for the company's network security.

The correct answer is to use the expression = HomeCalc. Daily.USO (Fields! Cuurnt.Value,"USD"). This expression references the ToEUR method in the HomeCalc assembly and passes the Cuurnt value and "USD" as arguments to convert USD to USO.

The correct answer is to utilize Discover_Commands for DMV. This DMV provides information about the commands that have been issued against the Analysis Services database, including the duration of the command execution. By analyzing the commands and their durations, you can identify any performance bottlenecks and take necessary actions to improve query session times.

The correct answer is to configure the Usage attribute to Distinct count and the Source Column attribute to CustomerKey. This is because the measure is meant to calculate the number of customers who have placed orders, which requires counting the distinct values of the CustomerKey column.

The correct answer is "=Iif(Parameters! DislayValue.Value=0,False,True)". This expression checks if the value of the parameter "DislayValue" is equal to 0. If it is, then the expression returns False, otherwise it returns True. This expression is used to operate the visibility of the column based on the parameter value.

The correct answer is to set the Content Manager role. The Content Manager role in Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services allows users to read all report definitions, which means they can view and access the content of the reports. This role provides the necessary permissions and access to the report definitions, ensuring that the group of users can fulfill their requirement of reading all the report definitions.

The correct answer is Discover_Commands would be used. This DMV provides information about the commands that are being executed on the SQL Server Analysis Services instance. By using this DMV, the query sessions that execute a query for more than 30,000 ms can be identified, as per the manager's requirements.

By changing the search to utilize the IN operator, the report will be able to search for multiple Type values at once. This allows for more flexibility and efficiency in searching for different types without having to modify the report each time.

Developing a URL action on the EmployeeTest attribute allows users to click on the attribute value in the SSRS report and navigate to a specific URL. This can be useful for linking to additional information or external resources related to the selected employee.

In order to ensure that only those products that have a relationship to the Categories attribute are displayed, the correct answer is to change the UnKnownMember property of the DimProducts dimension to Hidden. This will hide the Unknown member under the Categories attribute, resulting in only the products with a relationship to the Categories attribute being displayed.

The correct answer is to utilize the SQL Server Destination. This is because the SQL Server Destination is specifically designed for loading data into a SQL Server database. It provides better performance and efficiency compared to other options like the OLE DB Destination or Data Conversion Transformation. Additionally, using the SQL Server Destination ensures that the data flow is optimized for the target SQL Server database, resulting in faster and more reliable data refreshes.

The correct answer is that the trends in the lift chart will remain the same, meaning they will not change. However, the trends in the profit chart will change, indicating that they will be modified or updated. This suggests that when changing the settings on the Chart tab in the Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) project for data mining structure, the lift chart will remain consistent while the profit chart will be affected.

Creating a dataset filter and including the appropriate limiting expression is the correct answer because it allows you to limit the amount of data displayed on the report without affecting any other applications that use the stored procedure. By applying a filter to the dataset, you can specify the conditions that need to be met for the data to be included in the report, effectively reducing the amount of data displayed. This ensures that the report only shows the necessary information while maintaining the integrity of the stored procedure for other applications.

The correct answer is to set the value of the visible attribute to false where the value of the Name attribute is not equal to EXCEL. This means that all items in the subelement of the element, except for the one with the Name attribute equal to EXCEL, will not be visible. This ensures that all reports will only render to Microsoft Excel.

To retrieve measure values based on the Age and Name attributes, the source attribute should be set to Client and the related attribute should be set to Age. This will establish a relationship between the DimClient dimension and the Production measure group based on the Client attribute. Then, the source attribute should be set to Age and the related attribute should be set to Name. This will create a hierarchy within the DimClient dimension, allowing measure values to be retrieved based on both the Age and Name attributes.

The correct answer is to develop a relationship using BossKey as the source column and WorkerKey as the destination column. This means that the BossKey column in the Worker table will be used to establish the relationship between workers and their bosses in the data source view (DSV). By creating this relationship, you can easily analyze the hierarchy and relationships between workers and their bosses in the SSAS solution.

The correct answer is to run the Usage-Based Optimization Wizard to analyze and design aggregations. This is because the question states that the queries are running slower than usual, indicating a performance issue. The Usage-Based Optimization Wizard analyzes the usage patterns of the cube and identifies which aggregations are needed to improve query performance. By running this wizard, the cube can be optimized to better suit the query workload and improve overall performance.

The correct answer is to configure the IsAggregatable property of the Employees attribute to false. This means that the Employees attribute will not be aggregated, allowing it to be used as the root member of the parent-child hierarchy. By setting IsAggregatable to false, the topmost employee will be included in the hierarchy.

A Truth dimension relationship should be created between the TruthBills measure group and DimBills dimension. This means that the Shipper column is able to aggregate the BillQuantity column. This relationship allows for accurate analysis and reporting of data in the BI solution.

The solution of implementing report execution caching would be chosen to accomplish this task. This solution allows the report to be cached for a specific duration, in this case, half an hour, after the original request. This means that subsequent requests for the same report within that timeframe can be served from the cache instead of generating the report again, reducing the processing time. This improves the performance and responsiveness of the report server, especially for complex reports that take a few minutes to generate.

To define the relationship between the employees and their manager in the data source view (DSV), you should use ExecutiveKey as the source column and WorkerKey as the destination column. This means that the ExecutiveKey column in the Worker table will be used to establish the relationship with the WorkerKey column. This relationship will help in organizing and analyzing the data in the BI solution created using SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services (SSRS).
