CREATE CERTIFICATE TDE_CertificateFROM FILE = 'd:TDE_Certificate.cer'WITH PRIVATE KEY (FILE = 'D:TDE_Certificate.key',DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'MyPassword1!') Which Transact-SQL statement should you use before attempting the restore? You need to be able to restore the database. However, you are unable to access the database. You copy the encryption file to the original location.Ī hardware failure occurs and so a new server must be installed and configured.Īfter installing SQL Server to the new server, you restore the Orders database and copy the encryption files to their original location. You attempt to restore the Orders database and the restore fails. WITH PRIVATE KEY (FILE = 'D:TDE_Certificate.key', ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD =ĬREATE DATABASE ENCRYPTION KEY WITH ALGORITHM = AES_256ĮNCRYPTION BY SERVER CERTIFICATE TDE_Certificate ALTER DATABASE Orders SET ENCRYPTION ON You configure Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) on the Orders database by using the following statements: CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'MyPassword1!'ĬREATE CERTIFICATE TDE_Certificate WITH SUBJECT = 'TDE Certificate' īACKUP CERTIFICATE TDE_Certificate TO FILE = ''d:TDE_Certificate.cer' You administer a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 database. Then, select Add node to a SQL Server failover cluster. To add a node to an existing failover cluster instance, click Installation in the left-hand pane. The Installation Wizard will launch the SQL Server Installation Center. Use Cluster Administrator to add a new Resource Group to Node B.Įxplanation: To add a node to an existing SQL Server failover cluster, you must run SQL Server Setup on the node that is to be added to the SQL Server failover cluster instance. Run the Add Node to SQL Server Failover Cluster Wizard on Node C.

Use Node A to install SQL Server on Node C. Create a ConfigurationFile.ini file from Node B, and then run the AddNode command-line tool on Node A. You need to ensure that the SQL Server instance can use all nodes of the cluster. A single instance of SQL Server is installed on the cluster.Īn additional node named Node C has been added to the existing cluster. …you can see that our resultset now starts at the row where OrderDateKey = 20030104 and CustomerKey=23120.You administer a Microsoft SQL Server failover cluster that contains two nodes named Node A and Node B. If you compare the results of the following query with the results of the previous query: We can also order our resultset by using an Order By clause, for example:Īnd there’s also a Start At clause where, for every column that appears in the Order By clause, you can specify to start the result set at the first row where a particular set of values appears I would imagine that this will be useful for pagination in reports. Here, I’m getting all the columns from FactInternetSales but only those rows where the OrderDateKey is greater than 20030101. We can filter the rows we receive from a query by using the Filter function:

Here’s what you see when you run this query in an MDX query window (!) in SQL Server Management Studio:Īs you can see, the Evaluate statement is at the heart of the new DAX query language: it returns the results of a DAX table expression as the results of a query. This returns every row and every column from the FactInternetSales table. The simplest DAX query we can write on this model is probably this: (I know I’ve not talked about how you would actually go about building a Tabular model yet, but this post from the BISM team is a good starting point and in any case it’s not too different from how you’d build a PowerPivot model)

Let’s take a look at how the language works…įor the purposes of this post and the others in this series I built a very simple Tabular mode with two tables from the Adventure Works database, DimDate, DimProduct, DimProductSubCategory, DimProductCategory and FactInternetSales. It feels like years (in fact it has been years) since I’ve had anywhere near this much new functionality to learn and discuss here – it’s better than Christmas! And where better to start than with DAX queries? We’ve had DAX calculations for a while now, of course, but now in BISM Tabular mode we can actually write queries in DAX too. So at long last Denali CTP3 has been released and I can blog about all the cool new stuff in it.
