The only different being the answer on 36 ask specifically for the event name and in this it states from query editor?

In this case, sys.dm_tran_locks, instead of sys.dm_tran_database_transaction , may works for viewing all current locks, the lock resources, lock modes and so on..

this #76 has a different option for C - create an Extended Events session that uses Query Editor - although this can be done (writing and changing code from scratch), better option would be - create an Extended Events session using New session wizard. The answer can be C or D, but D (activity Monitor session) is high level overview of what is happening.

I also think that Activity Monitor is correct. Schema locking issues = Resource Waits pane (sys.dm_exec_session_wait_stats) Plan cache memory pressure points = Recent Expensive Queries pane Backup I/O problems = Data File I/O pane

sys.dm_exec_session_wait_stats This DMV is new in SQL Server 2016 and is identical in structure to sys.dm_os_wait_stats, but has an additional column for session ID. but it's not a choice here. i guess D

Activity Monitor displays information about SQL Server processes and how these processes affect the current instance of SQL Server. Activity Monitor is a tabbed document window with the following expandable and collapsible panes: Overview, Processes, Resource Waits, Data File I/O, Recent Expensive Queries, and Active Expensive Queries

There is no difference between Questions 36 and 76. The correct answer should be to create a sys.dm_exec_session_wait_stats dynamicmanagement view query (Correct)
