Answers to Exam Prep Questions

1.

D. To install SQL Server, you need a minimum of a Pentium 600, 512MB of RAM (although more is recommended), and Internet Explorer 6 or above. See SQL Server Books Online for more information.

2.

A, B, E. As shown in Table 1.1 in the chapter, you need Service Pack 4 for Windows 2000 Server, and the Web Edition of Windows Server 2003 supports only the Express Edition of SQL Server.

3.

C, D. You should never deny permissions to the Public role because, in essence, you would be denying the ability for any user. Instead, you should assign a minimal, base level of permission to this role. You can leverage Active Directory groups to ease administration, but you need to be cautious in using the Domain Users group, which in this example would be invalid. You should never use the Everyone group.

4.

B. You should never deny permissions to the Public role because, in essence, you would be denying the ability for any user. Instead, you should assign a minimal, base level of permission to this role. You can leverage existing Active Directory groups to ease administration, as long as they contain the appropriate individuals.

5.

A. The System Configuration Checker (SCC) can pinpoint conditions that will prevent a successful installation. The Migration Assistant, on the other hand, is used to migrate from other systems such as Access or Oracle. SQL Server Analysis Services provides online analytical processing (OLAP) and data mining functionality. SQL Server Profiler is for monitoring an existing instance of the database engine or Analysis Services.

6.

A. Although other forms of RAID offer fault tolerance, the implementation of the fault tolerance will have an associated performance cost. No RAID at all does not provide performance as good as you can achieve by using multiple drives in a RAID 0 configuration.

7.

C, D. You need to configure a linked server to provide access to data from the second source. Within the query, you address the second source by using four-part names.
