General Overview
You are the Senior Database Administrator (DBA) for a software development company named
ABC Solutions.

Existing Environment Active Directory


The network consists of an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) forest that includes a single
domain named CharnTech.com
All domain controllers run Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (SP1). A number of domain
member servers have been upgraded to Windows Server 2012. The remaining member servers
run Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (SP1). The client computers run either Windows 8
Professional or Windows 7 Professional with Service Pack 1 (SP1).
The functional level of the domain is Windows Server 2008 R2 and the functional level of the
forest is Windows Server 2008.
Existing Environment SQL Servers
A Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (SP1) server named SQLReporting01 runs SQL
Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services (SSRS). SQL Server on SQLReporting1 is configured to run in
Native Mode.
A Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (SP1) server named SQLAnalysis01 runs SQL Server
2008 R2 Analysis Services (SSAS).
A Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (SP1) server named SQLAnalysis02 runs SQL Server
2008 R2 Analysis Services (SSAS). SQLAnalysis01 and SQLAnalysis02 are configured as nodes
in a SQL Server active/passive failover cluster. SQLAnalysis01 is currently the active node in the
cluster.
Existing Environment Databases
The SQL Server environment hosts the databases shown in the following table.

Microsoft 70-467 Exam


The databases have a full backup taken every day.
Existing Environment Server Roles
SQLReporting01 contains 120 reports that are generated all day every day. The reports access
databases on the SSAS cluster for Sales and Production analysis. The reports are also used for
data modeling by analysts in the Development department.
A domain user account named SQLReporting01acc is used by the SSRS service on
SQLReporting01.
Planned Changes.
The company plans to upgrade the SQL Servers to SQL Server 2012. You will be working with the
Systems Administrator perform the upgrade. Downtime of the SQL Servers must be minimized
during the upgrade.
Two new servers will be implemented before the current SQL Servers are upgraded.
A Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (SP1) server named SQLReporting02 will be joined to
the domain and configured to run SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services (SSRS).
SQLReporting02 will host snapshots of business critical reports to ensure their availability during
the upgrade. You will use Reporting Services file-only installation mode to install SSRS on
SQLReporting02 and then restore and configure copies of the Reporting Services databases from
SQLReporting01 from backups taken every night. The configuration of SQLReporting02 including
configuration files and custom assemblies will be manually synchronized with SQLReporting01.
A Windows Server 2012 server named SSAS2012 will be installed and configured to run SQL
Server 2012 Analysis Services. This server will be used as a disaster recovery server in the event
of problems occurring during the upgrade of the SSAS cluster. All databases on the SSAS cluster
will be copied to this server prior to the upgrade. You need to minimize administrative effort and
downtime when moving the databases to SSAS2012. Client applications that connect to SQL
Server 2012 Analysis Services will be tested using this server.
