B．Use SQL Server Enterprise Manager to create a new job Create a Transact-SQL job step to query data from the OLTP database Create a second Transact-SQL job step to launch the DTS package Schedule the job to run each night at 8:00 P.M.

参考答案

正确答案：A
解析：Explanation: Transfers can be defined and stored in a DTS package, which can then be run from a command line using the dtsrun utility (DTSRUN.EXE). CmdExec job steps are operating system commands or executable programs ending with .bat, .cmd, .com, or .exe. In this scenario we create a job consisting of a single cmdexec job step which runs the DTS package using the dtsrun utility.

Incorrect answers:
B: Only one job, not two, has to be created at the OLTP database server.

C: If the Task Scheduler is running as the local system account it wouldn’t be able to access the remote OLAP database server.

D: The DTS export package should be run at the OLTP database server, not at the OLAP database server. The DTS package is exported from the OLTP server to the OLAP server.
