Exam DBDEA Topics: jobs Difficulty: hard

A Lakeflow Job with eight tasks failed during last night's run: tasks 1-4 succeeded, task 5 failed because of a bad record that has now been fixed in the source, and tasks 6-8 were skipped. Re-running tasks 1-4 is expensive because they re-ingest a full day of data. What is the most efficient way to recover?
