NEW QUESTION # 53
You have an Azure SQL database named sqldb1.
You need to minimize the possibility of Query Store transitioning to a read-only state.
What should you do?
- A. Double the value of Data Flush interval
- B. Decrease by half the value of Statistics Collection interval
- C. Double the value of Statistics Collection Interval
- D. Decrease by half the value of Data Flush Interval
Answer: D
Explanation:
Section: [none]
Explanation:
The Max Size (MB) limit isn't strictly enforced. Storage size is checked only when Query Store writes data to disk. This interval is set by the Data Flush Interval (Minutes) option. If Query Store has breached the maximum size limit between storage size checks, it transitions to read-only mode.
Incorrect Answers:
C: Statistics Collection Interval: Defines the level of granularity for the collected runtime statistic, expressed in minutes. The default is 60 minutes. Consider using a lower value if you require finer granularity or less time to detect and mitigate issues. Keep in mind that the value directly affects the size of Query Store data.

NEW QUESTION # 54
You have SQL Server on an Azure virtual machine that contains a database named DB1. DB1 contains a table named CustomerPII.
You need to record whenever users query the CustomerPII table.
Which two options should you enable? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
- A. SQL Server audit
- B. database audit specification
- C. a server principal
- D. server audit specification
Answer: B,D
Explanation:
Explanation
An auditing policy can be defined for a specific database or as a default server policy in Azure (which hosts SQL Database or Azure Synapse):
* A server policy applies to all existing and newly created databases on the server.
* If server auditing is enabled, it always applies to the database. The database will be audited, regardless of the database auditing settings.
* Enabling auditing on the database, in addition to enabling it on the server, does not override or change any of the settings of the server auditing. Both audits will exist side by side.
Note:
The Server Audit Specification object belongs to an audit.
A Database Audit Specification defines which Audit Action Groups will be audited for the specific database in which the specification is created.

You need to identify the cause of the performance issues on SalesSQLDb1.
Which two dynamic management views should you use? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
- A. sys.dm_exec_requests
- B. sys.dm_cdc_errors
- C. sys.dm_pdw_nodes_tran_locks
- D. sys.dm_tran_locks
- E. sys.dm_exec_compute_node_errors
- F. sys.dm_pdw_nodes_os_wait_stats
Answer: C,F
Explanation:
Explanation
SalesSQLDb1 experiences performance issues that are likely due to out-of-date statistics and frequent blocking queries.
A: Use sys.dm_pdw_nodes_tran_locks instead of sys.dm_tran_locks from Azure Synapse Analytics (SQL Data Warehouse) or Parallel Data Warehouse.
E: Example:
The following query will show blocking information.
SELECT
t1.resource_type,
t1.resource_database_id,
t1.resource_associated_entity_id,
t1.request_mode,
t1.request_session_id,
t2.blocking_session_id
FROM sys.dm_tran_locks as t1
INNER JOIN sys.dm_os_waiting_tasks as t2
ON t1.lock_owner_address = t2.resource_address;
Note: Depending on the system you're working with you can access these wait statistics from one of three locations:
sys.dm_os_wait_stats: for SQL Server
sys.dm_db_wait_stats: for Azure SQL Database
sys.dm_pdw_nodes_os_wait_stats: for Azure SQL Data Warehouse

NEW QUESTION # 62
You have an Azure SQL database that contains a table named Employees. Employees contains a column named Salary.
You need to encrypt the Salary column. The solution must prevent database administrators from reading the data in the Salary column and must provide the most secure encryption.
Which three actions 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.
Answer:
Explanation:
Explanation
Step 1: Create a column master key
Create a column master key metadata entry before you create a column encryption key metadata entry in the database and before any column in the database can be encrypted using Always Encrypted.
Step 2: Create a column encryption key.
Step 3: Encrypt the Salary column by using the randomized encryption type.
Randomized encryption uses a method that encrypts data in a less predictable manner. Randomized encryption is more secure, but prevents searching, grouping, indexing, and joining on encrypted columns.
Note: A column encryption key metadata object contains one or two encrypted values of a column encryption key that is used to encrypt data in a column. Each value is encrypted using a column master key.

NEW QUESTION # 65
You have an Azure Synapse Analytics dedicated SQL pool.
You run PDW_SHOWSPACEUSED('dbo.FactInternetSales');and get the results shown in the following table.
Which statement accurately describes the dbo.FactInternetSalestable?
- A. The table is skewed.
- B. The table uses round-robin distribution
- C. All distributions contain data.
- D. The table contains less than 10,000 rows.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Section: [none]
Explanation:
The rows per distribution can vary up to 10% without a noticeable impact on performance. Here the distribution varies more than 10%. It is skewed.
Note: SHOWSPACEUSED displays the number of rows, disk space reserved, and disk space used for a specific table, or for all tables in a Azure Synapse Analytics or Parallel Data Warehouse database.
This is a very quick and simple way to see the number of table rows that are stored in each of the 60 distributions of your database. Remember that for the most balanced performance, the rows in your distributed table should be spread evenly across all the distributions.
ROUND_ROBIN distributed tables should not be skewed. Data is distributed evenly across the nodes by design.

NEW QUESTION # 66
You are building an Azure virtual machine.
You allocate two 1-TiB, P30 premium storage disks to the virtual machine. Each disk provides 5,000 IOPS.
You plan to migrate an on-premises instance of Microsoft SQL Server to the virtual machine. The instance has a database that contains a 1.2-TiB data file. The database requires 10,000 IOPS.
You need to configure storage for the virtual machine to support the database.
Which three objects should you create in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate objects from the list of objects to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.
Answer:
Explanation:
Explanation
Follow these same steps to create striped virtual disk:
Create Log Storage Pool.
Create Virtual Disk
Create Volume
Box 1: a storage pool
Box 2: a virtual disk that uses stripe layout
Disk Striping: Use multiple disks and stripe them together to get a combined higher IOPS and Throughput limit. The combined limit per VM should be higher than the combined limits of attached premium disks.
Box 3: a volume

Box 1: Hash
Scenario:
Ensure that queries joining and filtering sales transaction records based on product ID complete as quickly as possible.
A hash distributed table can deliver the highest query performance for joins and aggregations on large tables.
Box 2: Round-robin
Scenario:
You plan to create a promotional table that will contain a promotion ID. The promotion ID will be associated to a specific product. The product will be identified by a product ID. The table will be approximately 5 GB.
A round-robin table is the most straightforward table to create and delivers fast performance when used as a staging table for loads. These are some scenarios where you should choose Round robin distribution:
When you cannot identify a single key to distribute your data.
If your data doesn't frequently join with data from other tables.
When there are no obvious keys to join.
