Microsoft Developing SQL Databases Sample Questions:
Question #1

You are developing queries and stored procedures to support a line-of-business application.
You need to use the appropriate isolation level based on the scenario.
Which isolation levels should you implement? To answer, select the appropriate isolation level for each scenario in the answer area. Each isolation level may be used only once.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Correct Answer:


Explanation

Box 1: READ UNCOMMITTED
Transactions running at the READ UNCOMMITTED level do not issue shared locks to prevent other transactions from modifying data read by the current transaction. READ UNCOMMITTED transactions are also not blocked by exclusive locks that would prevent the current transaction from reading rows that have been modified but not committed by other transactions. When this option is set, it is possible to read uncommitted modifications, which are called dirty reads. Values in the data can be changed and rows can appear or disappear in the data set before the end of the transaction.
Box 2: READ COMMITTED
READ COMMITTED specifies that statements cannot read data that has been modified but not committed by other transactions.
SERIALIZABLE specifies that statements cannot read data that has been modified but not yet committed by other transactions.
Box 3: REPEATABLE READ
REPEATABLE READ specifies that statements cannot read data that has been modified but not yet committed by other transactions and that no other transactions can modify data that has been read by the current transaction until the current transaction completes.
Box 4: SNAPSHOT
If READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT is set to ON, the Database Engine uses row versioning to present each statement with a transactionally consistent snapshot of the data as it existed at the start of the statement.

Question #2

You are reviewing the execution plans in the query plan cache. You observe the following:
- There are a large number of single use plans.
- There are a large number of simple execution plans that use multiple CPU cores.
You need to configure the server to optimize query plan execution.
Which two setting should you modify on the properties page for the Microsoft SQL Server instance? To answer, select the appropriate settings in the answer area.

Correct Answer:


Explanation

* Optimize for ad hoc workloads
The optimize for ad hoc workloads option is used to improve the efficiency of the plan cache for workloads that contain many single use ad hoc batches. When this option is set to 1, the Database Engine stores a small compiled plan stub in the plan cache when a batch is compiled for the first time, instead of the full compiled plan. This helps to relieve memory pressure by not allowing the plan cache to become filled with compiled plans that are not reused.
* Cost Threshold for Parallelism
Use the cost threshold for parallelism option to specify the threshold at which Microsoft SQL Server creates and runs parallel plans for queries. SQL Server creates and runs a parallel plan for a query only when the estimated cost to run a serial plan for the same query is higher than the value set in cost threshold for parallelism. The cost refers to an estimated elapsed time in seconds required to run the serial plan on a specific hardware configuration.
5 means 5 seconds, but is is 5 seconds on a machine internal to Microsoft from some time in the 1990s.
There's no way to relate it to execution time on your current machine, so we treat it as a pure number now.
Raising it to 50 is a common suggestion nowadays, so that more of your simpler queries run on a single thread.

Question #3

You suspect deadlocks on a database.
Which two trace flags in the Microsoft SQL Server error log should you locate? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  • A. 1222
  • B. 3205
  • C. 1204
  • D. 2528
  • E. 1211

Question #4

You have multiple queries that take a long time to complete.
You need to identify the cause by using detailed information about the Transact-SQL statements in the queries. The Transact-SQL statements must not run as part of the analysis.
Which Transact-SQL statement should you run?

  • A. SET SHOWPLAN_TEXT OFF
  • B. SET SHOWPLAN_ALL ON
  • C. SET STATISTICS PROFILE ON
  • D. SET STATISTICS PROFILE OFF

Question #5

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that use the same scenario. For your convenience, the scenario is repeated in each question. Each question presents a different goal and answer choices, but the text of the scenario is exactly the same in each question in this series.
You have a database named DB1 that contains the following tables: Customer, CustomerToAccountBridge, and CustomerDetails. The three tables are part of the Sales schema. The database also contains a schema named Website. You create the Customer table by running the following Transact-SQL statement:

The value of the CustomerStatus column is equal to one for active customers. The value of the Account1Status and Account2Status columns are equal to one for active accounts. The following table displays selected columns and rows from the Customer table.

You plan to create a view named Website.Customer and a view named Sales.FemaleCustomers.
Website.Customer must meet the following requirements:
* Allow users access to the CustomerName and CustomerNumber columns for active customers.
* Allow changes to the columns that the view references. Modified data must be visible through the view.
* Prevent the view from being published as part of Microsoft SQL Server replication.
Sales.Female.Customers must meet the following requirements:
* Allow users access to the CustomerName, Address, City, State and PostalCode columns.
* Prevent changes to the columns that the view references.
* Only allow updates through the views that adhere to the view filter.
You have the following stored procedures: spDeleteCustAcctRelationship and spUpdateCustomerSummary.
The spUpdateCustomerSummary stored procedure was created by running the following Transacr-SQL statement:

You run the spUpdateCustomerSummary stored procedure to make changes to customer account summaries.
Other stored procedures call the spDeleteCustAcctRelationship to delete records from the CustomerToAccountBridge table.
You must update the design of the Customer table to meet the following requirements.
* You must be able to store up to 50 accounts for each customer.
* Users must be able to retrieve customer information by supplying an account number.
* Users must be able to retrieve an account number by supplying customer information.
Which three Transact_SQL segments should you use to develop the solution? To answer, move the appropriate code blocks from the list of code blocks to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

Correct Answer:


Explanation

Box 1: Clustered Index
With the same size of keys, the nonclustered indexes need more space than clustered indexes.
Box 2, Box 3:
Include the CustomerStatus column in the index, and only when CustomerStatusnot equal to 1 (the active customers).
