The SQL Browser Service has been stopped D. The IP addresses of the developers’ workstations have been added to the Exclude list in the TCP/IP properties of the named instance in Configuration Manager. 4.

Which two actions would achieve this goal? A. Stop and disable the browser service on each SQL Server B. Use Configuration Manager on each server to change each instance to listen on port 50000 C. Use Configuration Manager on each server to change each instance to listen different ports D. Configure the SQL Browser Service to hide each instance E. Enable Show Advanced Options using sp_configure and use the Default TCP port option to configure the port for each instance 5.

The SQL Browser Service isn’t running C. The SQL Server tools on the developer workstations haven’t been service packed D. TCP/IP is disabled by default in Developer Edition 8. A SQL Server recently suffered from all CPUs running at 100 percent, which you found to be caused by a missing index. You fixed the problem, but you want to stop any new occurrences from saturating all CPUs. Which of these options would achieve this? A. Use sp_configure to set max degree of parallelism B. Use Configuration Manager to configure the SQL Server Service to use fewer CPUs C. Run the Database Tuning Advisor and apply any recommendations D. Use sp_configure to set cost threshold for parallelism 9. A developer has contacted you because he wants to enable AWE memory on his Developer Edition instance, but he says that he can’t see the option with sp_configure. What is the most likely cause? A. AWE is not supported with Developer Edition ConfiguringSQLServer2008•Chapter3 119 B. The developer is connecting with a low-privilege user and doesn’t have enough permissions C. He hasn’t enabled show advanced options with sp_configure D. He hasn’t enabled /PAE in boot.ini 10. You’re running SQL Server 64-bit and want to make sure that SQL Server doesn’t take too much memory. Which of these options would achieve that? A. Set “Maximum Server Memory (MB)” using sp_configure B. Assign the SQL Service account the “Lock Pages in Memory” privilege C. Set “Maximum Server Memory (MB)” using SQL Server Management Studio D. Start SQL Server with the -g switch passing the maximum memory as a parameter. 11. One of your DBAs is setting up SQLMail and has asked you for a license key for Outlook. You suggest he enables Database Mail instead. Which two of these options are features of Database Mail? A. Received e-mails are stored in msdb B. It doesn’t require a MAPI client C. It is Windows failover-cluster aware D. It is available in all SQL Server editions 12. A business user has just phoned to say that his data wasn’t updated overnight. You check SQL Server and see that a SQL Server Agent job that runs a data load failed last night. You want to be automatically notified via email if it hap- pens again. Which of these options will provide the most efficient, supported solution? A. Implement SQLMail B. Implement Database Mail C. Install a 3rd-party SMTP mailer D. Implement Service Broker 13. You’ve just upgraded to SQL Server 2008 from SQL Server 2000, and you’ve dropped SQLMail in favor of Database Mail. The IT Manager wants to know if Database Mail has redundancy if a mail server goes down. How would you reply? 120 Chapter3•ConfiguringSQLServer2008 A. Yes, you can configure multiple SMTP servers in a Database Mail Profile B. Yes, you can configure SQLMail as a backup C. No, you would have to reconfigure it to use a different mail server D. Yes, Database Mail is supported on a failover cluster 14. You’ve been investigating deadlocks on your server using trace flag 1222, and you’d like to enable it permanently to capture extra information if deadlocks occur again, even if SQL Server gets restarted. What is the easiest way to do this? A. Execute DBCC TRACEON (1222,-1) B. Create a startup stored procedure containing DBCC TRACEON (1222,-1) and use sp_configure to enable scan for startup procs C. Use Configuration Manager to add –T1222 as a startup parameter for the SQL Server service D. Execute DBCC TRACEON (1222) 15.

Use sp_configure to enable common criteria compliance enabled C. SQL Server 2008 is automatically EAL4+ compliant D. SQL Server 2008 does not support EAL4+ compliance 16. Some of your full-text indexes are consuming a lot of server resources. You investigate and discover that the index causing the problem is on a text-based field that is updated frequently. You’ve spoken to the business, and the updates don’t affect their search results. What could you do to reduce the overall impact on the server while keeping the index fairly up to date? A. Set change tracking on the index to AUTO B. Move the index to a filegroup on its own drive C. Set change tracking on the index to MANUAL and schedule a nightly population update. D. Set change tracking on the index to OFF 17. You have installed a default and two named instances called Phobos and Deimos on a server called Mars. How would you connect to each instance?

Move TCP/IP above Shared Memory in the connection protocol order D. Disable Shared Memory using sp_configure ‘shared memory enabled’ 19. You are responsible for a large-capacity server that has a default instance of SQL Server 2008 installed and hosts databases for multiple applications belonging to several of your customers. A new database needs to be moved to the server, which has a different collation, and the collation of TempDB needs to match it.
