                                View the Warehouse Database and Analysis Services Database status.
                              • C. From the TFS server:
                                Browse to http : //<servername> : 8080/tfs/teamfoundation/administration/ v3.0/warehousecontrolservice.asmx

                              Your network environment includes a Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2012 server that has separate computers for the application tier and the data tier.
                              The data-tier computer experiences hardware failure. You restore all the data of TFS on another computer in the network by using a backup.
                              You need to provide the location of the restored database to the application tier of TFS without reinstalling the application tier.
                              What should you do?

                              • A. Run the Tfsmqmt.exe configure command.
