Exam DBDEA Topics: jobs Difficulty: medium

A nightly Lakeflow Job takes a processing_date parameter whose default is the current date. Late this evening, an on-call engineer must reprocess yesterday's data exactly once, and tomorrow's scheduled run must continue using the default. The job definition itself may not change. What should the engineer do?

  1. A. Edit the job's default parameter to yesterday's date, start the run, and revert the default before the nightly schedule fires
  2. B. Clone the job into a one-off reprocess version with the new date, run it, and delete the clone afterwards
  3. C. Start the run with Run now with different parameters, passing processing_date for that run only
  4. D. Deploy a new bundle target that sets the parameter, since parameter values can only change through a deployment
