You are a database developer and you have about two years experience in creating
business Intelligence (BI) by using SQL Server2008.
Now you are employed in a company named NaproStar which uses SQL Server2008. You
work as the technical support.
According to the requirement of the company, you’re deploying a SQL Server 2008
Integration Services (SSIS) package.
The XML configuration is not specified when deploying the package. You have to apply the
configuration to the deployed package. What action should you do?
A.
The Deployment utility should be used
B.
The SETX command line utility should be used
C.
The DTEXEC command line utility should be used
D.
The DTUTIL command line utility should be used
Explanation:
Using DTExecUI to Configure Package Execution
The command-line executable file DTExec is a fully featured utility with broad
parameterization capabilities.
You can generate the command line manually by applying the command parameters to meet
the execution circumstance, but to save time and avoid errors, you can use the commandline builder utility named DTExecUI.
DTExecUI is a visual tool that naturally groups the command parameter options. The server
on which you run DTExecUI must have SSIS installed. To open DTExecUI, type DTExecUI
either from a command prompt or by choosing Start and then Run to open the Run dialog
box. You can open the tool from the Run dialog box or from the command prompt without
specifying the path.
To use DTExecUI, follow these steps:
1. Open the Execute Package Utility by executing DTExecUI either by choosing Start and
then Run, and entering DTE xecUI in the Run dialog box, or through a command prompt.
2. On the General property page, select the package for execution so that you can modify a
property on the other pages. In the Package Source drop-down list, select File System, SSIS
Package Store, or SQL Server, depending on where your package is located.
3. After identifying the package location, select the specific package for execution. If your
package is stored in SQL Server or the SSIS Package Store, you need to specify the
connection details to the SQL Server 2008 server by providing the server name. SQL Server
also requires you to either provide a user name and password or specify Windows
Authentication. All location choices require that you specify the package in the Package box
by clicking the ellipsis button to the right of the Package box.
4. Next you need to specify how the package should be executed by configuring other
package execution properties. Selecting the various property pages on the left from
Configurations down through Verification will let you override settings such as connections,
logging, and outputs. Table 4-3 describes the execution configuration options.
Manual package deployment You can move your SSIS packages to a destination folder by
copying them manually, by using a source-control tool that handles file deployment, or by
creating a script or an application that handles the deployment. If you store your package in
SQL Server,
you can either use the DTUtil command-line utility that comes with SSIS to deploy your
packages to SQL Server or manually import them through SSMS.
