Question 1
Q1A financial services firm is deploying a SharePoint 2013 farm solution that includes a custom timer job. This timer job must process sensitive data from a specific content database associated with the 'secure.contoso.com' web application only. The solution must ensure the timer job logic does not execute on any other web application's content databases to maintain strict data segregation. Which property of the SPJobDefinition class must be set to achieve this requirement?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
The WebApplication property of the SPJobDefinition class scopes the timer job to a specific web application. When this property is set, the timer job will only run against the content databases attached to that web application, fulfilling the security and data segregation requirement. LockType controls concurrency, Server scopes it to a specific server, and Service associates it with a service, none of which restrict it to a single web application's data.
