Note: This question is part of a series of questions that use the same or similar answer choices. An answer choice may be correct for more than one question in the series. Each
question is independent of the other questions in this series. Information and details provided in a question apply only to that question.
You have a Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) instance that is configured to use multidimensional mode. You create the following cube:

You need to create a new dimension that allows users to list shipments by the country where the product is shipped.
Which relationship type should you use between the Shipment table and the new dimension?

• A. no relationship
• B. regular
• C. fact
• D. referenced
• E. many-to-many
• F. data mining

Answer: E

Explanation:
Many to Many Dimension Relationships.
In most dimensions, each fact joins to one and only one dimension member, and a single dimension member can be associated with multiple facts. In relational database terminology, this is referred to as a one-to-many relationship. However, it is frequently useful to join a single fact to multiple dimension members. For example, a bank customer might have multiple accounts (checking, saving, credit card, and investment accounts), and
an account can also have joint or multiple owners. The Customer dimension constructed from such relationships would then have multiple members that relate to a single account transaction.

NEW QUESTION 6

You are administrating a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) tabular database.
You need to create a new role that allows its members to query data and to refresh data in the model.
Which permission should you use? (More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.)

• A. Browse and Manage
• B. Administrator
• C. Read and Process
• D. Explore and Manage

Answer: C

Explanation:
* Giving a database role permission to process an Analysis Services database means that the role has permission to perform all processing options on the database. This includes the processing of all cubes, dimensions, mining structures, and mining models in the database. However, the role does not have permission to read database metadata or access any data in the database itself.

NEW QUESTION 7
DRAG DROP
You are a business analyst for a company that uses a Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) tabular database for reporting. The database model contains the following tables:

You have been asked to write a query for a report that returns the total sales for each product subcategory, as well as for each product category.
You need to write the query to return the data for the report.
How should you complete the DAX statement? To answer, drag the appropriate DAX segment to the correct locations. Each DAX segment may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.

• A. Mastered
• B. Not Mastered

Answer: A

Explanation:
Box 1:EVALUATE Box 2:SUMMERIZE Box 3:ROLLUP
Box 4:'Product Subcategory' ['Product Subcategory Name]
Note: The behavior of SUMMARIZE is similar to the GROUP BY syntax of a SELECT statement in SQL. For example, consider the following query.
EVALUATE SUMMARIZE(
'Internet Sales',
'Internet Sales'[Order Date],
"Sales Amount", SUM( 'Internet Sales'[Sales Amount] )
)
This query calculates the total of Sales Amount for each date in which there is at least one order,
producing this result. References:

NEW QUESTION 9
DRAG DROP
You install a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) instance in tabular mode on a server.
While processing a very large tabular model, you receive an out-of-memory error. You identify that the amount of physical memory in the server is insufficient. Additional physical memory cannot be installed in the server.
You need to configure the server to allow paging to disk by using the operating system page file (pagefile.sys).
Which four 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.)

• A. Mastered
• B. Not Mastered

Answer: A

Explanation:
Box 1:

Box 2:

Box 3:

Box 4:

Note:
* View or set configuration properties in Management Studio
✑ In SQL Server Management Studio, connect to an Analysis Services instance. In Object Explorer, right-click the Analysis Services instance, and then clickProperties. The General page appears, displaying the more commonly used properties.
✑ To view additional properties, click theShow Advanced (All) Propertiescheckbox at the bottom of the page.
Modifying server properties is supported only for tabular mode and multidimensional mode servers. If you installed PowerPivot for SharePoint, always use the default values unless you are directed otherwise by a Microsoft product support engineer.
* VertiPaqPagingPolicy
Specifies the paging behavior in the event the server runs low on memory. Valid values are as follows:
Zero (0) is the default. No paging is allowed. If memory is insufficient, processing fails with an out-of-memory error.
1 enables paging to disk using the operating system page file (pagefile.sys).
When VertiPaqPagingPolicy is set to 1, processing is less likely to fail due to memory constraints because the server will try to page to disk using the method that you specified. Setting the VertiPaqPagingPolicy property does not guarantee that memory errors will never happen. Out of memory errors can still occur under the following conditions:
There is not enough memory for all dictionaries. During processing, Analysis Services locks the dictionaries for each column in memory, and all of these together cannot be more than the value specified for VertiPaqMemoryLimit.
There is insufficient virtual address space to accommodate the process.
To resolve persistent out of memory errors, you can either try to redesign the model to reduce the amount of data that needs processing, or you can add more physical memory to the computer.
Applies to tabular server mode only
* Incorrect: VertiPaqMemoryLimit
If paging to disk is allowed, this property specifies the level of memory consumption (as a percentage of total memory) at which paging starts. The default is 60. If memory
consumption is less than 60 percent, the server will not page to disk.
This property depends on the VertiPaqPagingPolicyProperty, which must be set to 1 in order for paging to occur.
Applies to tabular server mode only.

NEW QUESTION 10

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution. Determine whether the solution meets the stated goals.
A company has an e-commerce website. When a customer places an order, information about the transaction is inserted into tables in a Microsoft SQL Server relational database named OLTP1. The company has a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) instance that is configured to use Tabular mode. SSAS uses data from OLTP1 to populate a data model.
Sales analysts build reports based on the SSAS model. Reports must be able to access data as soon as it is available in the relational database.
You need to configure and deploy an Analysis Services project to the Analysis Services instance that allows near real-time data source access.
Solution: In the Deployment Option property for the report, you set the Query Mode to DirectQuery with InMemory.
Does the solution meet the goal?

• A. Yes
• B. No

Answer: A

Explanation:
With DirectQuerywithInMemory mode the queries use the relational data source by default, unless otherwise specified in the connection string from the client.

You need to configure the CoffeeSale fact table environment.
Which four 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.
NOTE: More than one order of answer choices is correct. You will receive credit for any of the correct orders you select.

• A. Mastered
• B. Not Mastered

Answer: A

Explanation:
Step 1: Partition the CoffeSale facto table.
Step 2: Set the storage mode for all partitions to HOLAP.
Partitions stored as HOLAP are smaller than the equivalent MOLAP partitions because
they do not contain source data and respond faster than ROLAP partitions for queries involving summary data.
Step 3: Alter the processing job to ensure that it rearranges the partition structure each evening.
Step 4: Test that the cube meets the functional requirement for data currency and query performance.
From scenario:
Data analysts must be able to analyze sales for financial years, financial quarters, months, and days. Many reports are based on analyzing sales by month.
The SalesAnalysis cube contains a fact table named CoffeeSale loaded from a table named FactSale in the data warehouse. The time granularity within the cube is 15 minutes. The cube is processed every night at 23:00. You determine that the fact table cannot be fully processed in the expected time. Users have reported slow query response times.

question is independent of the other questions in this series. Information and details provided in a question apply only to that question.
You have a Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) instance that is configured to use multidimensional mode. You create the following cube:

Users need to be able to analyze sales by product and color. You need to create the dimension.
Which relationship type should you use between the InternetSales table and the new dimension?

• A. no relationship
• B. regular
• C. fact
• D. referenced
• E. many-to-many
• F. data mining

Answer: D

Explanation:
A reference dimension relationship between a cube dimension and a measure group exists when the key column for the dimension is joined indirectly to the fact table through a key in another dimension table, as shown in the following illustration.

A reference dimension relationship represents the relationship between dimension tables and a fact table in a snowflake schema design. When dimension tables are connected in a snowflake schema, you can define a single dimension using columns from multiple tables, or you can define separate dimensions based on the separate dimension tables and then define a link between them using the reference dimension relationship setting. The following figure shows one fact table named InternetSales, and two dimension tables called Customer and Geography, in a snowflake schema.

You can create two dimensions related to the InternetSales measure group: a dimension based on the Customer table, and a dimension based on the Geography table. You can then relate the Geography dimension to the InternetSales measure group using a reference dimension relationship using the Customer dimension.

NEW QUESTION 15

You are developing a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) tabular project.
A column named City must be added to the table named Customer. The column will be used in the definition of a hierarchy. The City column exists in the Geography table that is related to the Customer table.
You need to add the City column to the Customer table. How should you write the calculation?

• A. City:= LOOKUP(Geography[City],Geography[GeographyKey],[GeographyKey])
• B. City:= LOOKUPVALUE(Geography[City],Geography[GeographyKey],[GeographyKey]) C .=RELATED(Geography[City])
• C. =RELATED(Geography.City)
• D. =VALUES(Geography[City])
• E. City:=VALUES(Geography[City])

Answer: C

Explanation:
* RELATED Function Returns a related value from another table.
