High-performance mode question:
The question is talking about configuring, not what you would do in the case of a Failover.

So, you need to configure a solution that has lowest latency.
That means it can't be "D" (Auto Failover), as that requires Synchronous mode, and that has highest latency, as Commit must happen on Mirror before Commit happens on Primary.

Can't be "A" (Pause), as that would mean no High Availability.

Can't be "B" (Manual Failover), as Manual Failover relies on Synchronous mode, even for short while.

That leaves C (Forced).
The App is designed to retry transactions if failover happens.
So forcing, though it may lose committed transactions, is the answer, as the App logic will detect that transactions are not committed, and retry them on the new Primary.

Question 41.
Let's turn the discussion about the correct answer. I saw several people saying that the correct answer is A, others say it is C. I did the second test and got 650pt and failed.
We need everyone to research the correct answer to the questions!!!

High-performance mode, supports only one form of role switching: forced service (with possible data loss), which uses the mirror server as a warm standby server. Forced service is one of the possible responses to the failure of the principal server.
Considering all th articles, this is the only possible good solution, I think.

anyone have a definitive answer for the manual failover vs forced service role switching? From what I read I figure its forced service role switching, but sometimes the right answer in the real world isnt the right answer on these tests

@Sule - I am not sure about your idea so we might as well get help from the others. High-Safety and High-Performance modes can both commit transactions. In the article it says:

"High-Safety Mode supports synchronous operation"
"As soon as the databases are synchronized, a transaction is committed on both partners, at the COST OF INCREASED transaction LATENCY."
"Manual and Automatic Failover Role Switching requires High-Safety Mode"


"High-Performance Mode runs asynchronously."
"In high-performance mode, as soon as the principal server sends a log record to the mirror server, the principal server sends a confirmation to the client. It does not wait for an acknowledgement from the mirror server. This means that "TRANSACTIONS COMMIT" without waiting for the mirror server to write the log to disk. Such asynchronous operation enables the principal server to run with minimum transaction latency, at the potential risk of some data loss."
"Forced Service Role Switching runs under high-performance mode and high-safety mode without automatic failover"

What do you guys think?

  • May 27, 2011
  • Sule

  • May 27, 2011

And what about this part of question: "for committed
transactions." I'm not sure that High-Performance Mode (Configure forced service role switching) support this.. I don't understand question very well..

  • May 27, 2011
  • Carlos

  • May 27, 2011

@Helper22. You explanation is exactly what I also understand from the article. Another idea I thought is related to the part "The current application includes programming logic that will retry transactions if a failover occurs." which indicates that if the "Forced service" occurs and a possible data loss takes place, the application will retry de transactions and there will be no data loss in fact. What do you think? I hope others DBA's join us in this discussion.

  • May 27, 2011
  • Helper22

  • May 27, 2011

@Carlos - Well I am not an expert in SQL Server but what I simply think is that, There are 2 mirroring Operating Modes, one is the High-Safety Mode and the other one is High-Performance Mode. There is an increased transaction latency involved in High-Safety Mode. Automatic and Manual Failover Role Switching requires High-Safety Mode but "FORCED SERVICE" runs under High-Performance Mode wherein asynchronous operation enables the principal server to run with minimum transaction latency. These are the ideas I gathered from that article and according to the problem, this might be the solution. If I will be wrong I stand corrected sorry.

Hi helper22, why do you think the correct answer is "Configure forced service role switching."? I've read the pages you indicated and I think you might be right, but I wanna understand better what you think.

Guys: regarding the question below from Emir's 21 questions in the pdf, I think the answer should be

"Configure forced service role switching." The two popular answers that have been debated were "Configure

manual failover role switching." and "Configure automatic failover role switching". I may be wrong but
you can refer to this link "http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189852.aspx" and read "Operating
Modes" plus "Role Switching".


You administer a SQL Server 2008 instance.
You plan to design a high-availability solution by using database mirroring.
The current application includes programming logic that will retry transactions if a failover occurs.
You need to configure a strategy that will provide the minimum amount of latency for committed
transactions. What should you do?

A. Pause database mirroring.
B. Configure manual failover role switching.
C. Configure forced service role switching.
D. Configure automatic failover role switching.

Q40 the answer should be C - Enable nested Triggers - "If the nested triggers server configuration option is disabled, On change: prevent will not work correctly. Policy-Based Management relies on DDL triggers to detect and roll back DDL operations that do not comply with policies that use this evaluation mode. Removing the Policy-Based Management DDL triggers or disabling nest triggers, will cause this evaluation mode to fail or perform unexpectedly." - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb510667.aspx

Hello Peter,
I'm sorry but you're not rught about question (38).
SQL Server 2008 supports Kerberos authentication on the following protocols:
TCP/IP
Named pipes
Shared memory

I agree on 4, 16, 21, 28, 29, 35, 42, 51, 54, 64, 65
I think 38, 40 + 41 are wrong. My opionon: 38A, 40D, 41C
(38B can't be right since Kerberos can only be used with TCP/IP for example)

Regarding question 64, I have a doubt that C is the correct answer. Based on the link posted below, I would say that B is more correct. The only problem with the answer B is that it says server master key instead of service master key. Any thoughts on this?

Just took the exam. All 50 questions are from the MrE and this latest 21 questions from Emir. That makes it easier to study as you only need to learn 70 questions. However, the answers that Hank and Andreas took the time to post are at least half wrong, at least. Until a definitive answer list comes out, use their answer sheets as a starting point. I passed with a 700. Research the answers yourself and you will easily pass with a 1000

Bottom line is that do not just memorize the dump and go to the exam. It will be too risky.
