You administer a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 instancethat contains a financial database hosted on a storage
area network (SAN).
The financial database has the following characteristics:
A data file of 2 terabytes is located on a dedicated LUN (drive D).
A transaction log of 10 GB is located on a dedicated LUN (drive E).
Drive D has 1 terabyte of free disk space.
Drive E has 5 GB of free disk space.
The database is continually modified by users during business hours from Monday through Friday between
09:00 hours and 17:00 hours.
Five percent of the existing data is modified each day.
The Finance department loads large CSV files into anumber of tables each business day at 11:15 hours and
15:15 hours by using the BCP or BULK INSERT commands.
Each data load adds 3 GB of data to the database.
These data load operations must occur in the minimum amount of time.
A full database backup is performed every Sunday at10:00 hours.
Backup operations will be performed every two hours(11:00, 13:00, 15:00, and 17:00) during business hours.
On Wednesday at 10:00 hours, the development team requests you to refresh the database on a
development server by using the most recent version.
You need to perform a full database backup that will be restored on the development server.

The right Solution ist L) COPY_ONLY to get a full backup without disturbing the normal Backup-Process.
I agree with Testee L) Copy_Only
Yes…I agree with Testee!
The question says a full database back, I believe in a case like this you carry out a (transaction log backup).
so what is the correct answer?
Microsoft’s own people say its B&L Although L must imply B
