Hello!
I've got a test question that I don't know how to interpret:
"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 a number 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 at 10:00 hours. Backup operations will be performed every two hours (11:00, 13:00, 15:00, and 17:00) during business hours.
You need to ensure that the minimum amount of data is lost.
Which recovery model should the database use?"
I don't understand based on what should I chose an answer? Full backup can be performed in the Full, Bulk-logged and Simple recovery models. Given that types of additional backups (11:00-17:00) are not specified how can I answer this question?
Thank you in advance,
Michael
