QUESTION 1
Over the weekend, a company’s transaction database was moved to an upgraded server. All validations performed after the migration indicated that the database was functioning as expected.
However, on Monday morning, multiple users reported that the corporate reporting application was not working.
Which of the following are the most likely causes? (Choose two.)

A. The access permissions for the service account used by the reporting application were not changed.
B. The new database server has its own reporting system, so the old one is not needed.
C. The reporting jobs that could not process during the database migration have locked the application.
D. The reporting application’s mapping to the database location was not updated.
E. The database server is not permitted to fulfill requests from a reporting application.
F. The reporting application cannot keep up with the new, faster response from the database.

Answer: A, D

Explanation:
The most likely causes of the reporting application not working are that the access permissions for the service account used by the reporting application were not changed, and that the reporting
application’s mapping to the database location was not updated. These two factors could prevent the reporting application from accessing the new database server. The other options are either
irrelevant or unlikely to cause the problem. Reference: CompTIA DataSys+ Course Outline, Domain
3.0 Database Management and Maintenance, Objective 3.2 Given a scenario, troubleshoot common database issues.

QUESTION 2
A database administrator needs to ensure that a newly installed corporate business intelligence application can access the company’s transactional data.
Which of the following tasks should the administrator perform first?

A. Create a new service account exclusively for the business intelligence application.
B. Build a separate data warehouse customized to the business intelligence application’s specifications.
C. Set up a nightly FTP data transfer from the database server to the business intelligence application server.
D. Send the business intelligence administrator the approved TNS names file to configure the data mapping.
E. Open a new port on the database server exclusively for the business intelligence application.

Answer: A

Explanation:
The first task that the administrator should perform is to create a new service account exclusively for the business intelligence application. This will ensure that the application has the appropriate
permissions and credentials to access the company’s transactional data. The other options are either unnecessary, inefficient, or insecure. For example, building a separate data warehouse would require
