Question

You manage a SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) instance in native mode. You are building a shared dataset for your weekly performance reports. The shared dataset uses a data source that is configured to use credentials that are stored in the Report Server. You have a predefined shared schedule to perform cleanup and maintenance tasks for SSRS. You need to enable caching on the shared dataset. You also need to use an existing shared schedule to discard the cache. Which four actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)

Explanation

Box 1: Open Report Manager and then click the shared dataset. We should use Report Manager (not SharePoint Central Administration). Box 2: Select the Caching page and then click the Cache shared dataset checkbox. We set up caching. Box 3: Select the Expire the cache on the following schedule option and then select the Shared Schedule option. We configure caching further. Box 4: From the combo box, select the shared schedule and then click Apply. Finally we define scheduling. Note on caching: To open the Caching properties page for a shared dataset Options include: Cache shared dataset (Box 2 above): Places a temporary copy of the data in a cache when a user first opens a report that uses this shared dataset. Subsequent users who run the report within the caching period receive the cached copy of the data. Caching usually improves performance because the data is returned from the cache instead of running the dataset query again. Expire the cache on the following schedule (box 3 above) Schedule the time when the cached data is no longer valid and is removed from the cache. The schedule can be a shared schedule or one that is specific for only the current shared dataset. Reference: SQL Server 2012, Caching Page, Shared Datasets (Report Manager)
