Snowflake ARA-C01 Exam - Topic 5 Question 25 Discussion

Actual exam question for Snowflake's ARA-C01 exam

Question #: 25
Topic #: 5

An Architect with the ORGADMIN role wants to change a Snowflake account from an Enterprise edition to a Business Critical edition.

How should this be accomplished?

ARun an ALTER ACCOUNT command and create a tag of EDITION and set the tag to Business Critical.

BUse the account's ACCOUNTADMIN role to change the edition.

CFailover to a new account in the same region and specify the new account's edition upon creation.

DContact Snowflake Support and request that the account's edition be changed.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

To change the edition of a Snowflake account, an organization administrator (ORGADMIN) cannot directly alter the account settings through SQL commands or the Snowflake interface. The proper procedure is to contact Snowflake Support to request an edition change for the account. This ensures that the change is managed correctly and aligns with Snowflake's operational protocols.

C is the way to go, failover is the only option for a new edition!

I thought you could just run an ALTER ACCOUNT command?

You need to use the ACCOUNTADMIN role for that.

I feel like C could be a valid approach, but it seems a bit complicated compared to just using the ACCOUNTADMIN role.

I’m a bit confused about the ALTER ACCOUNT command; I thought it was more for modifying settings rather than changing editions.

I remember practicing a similar question where we had to change account settings, and I feel like contacting support was an option there too.

I think the answer might be B, but I'm not entirely sure if the ORGADMIN role has the necessary permissions.

B is my pick. The ACCOUNTADMIN role should have the necessary privileges to handle this type of account-level change.

I'm leaning towards A. The ALTER ACCOUNT command seems like the straightforward way to update the account edition, but I'll need to confirm the syntax.

Option D seems like the safest approach. Changing the account edition could have significant implications, so it's best to go through Snowflake Support to ensure it's done correctly.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know we talked about Valid To dates in class, but I can't quite remember the best practice. Let me think through the options carefully.

Wait, I'm confused. Is it option A or C? I thought you had to use the file= option to specify the data set, but now I'm second-guessing myself. This is a tough one.

I'm confident the answer is C. The question specifically mentions the port is not reserved for any other traffic, so a FCoE uplink seems like the logical choice to handle just the storage server VLAN 200 traffic.

Wait, is it Nagios? I remember learning about that tool in class, but I can't recall if it does full packet capture. I'll have to review my notes to be sure.
