ARUN TASK

BCALL TASK

CEXECUTE TASK

DRUN ROOT TASK

Suggested Answer: D

All are correct except a standard-only stream tracks row inserts only.

A standard (i.e. delta) stream tracks all DML changes to the source object, including inserts, up-dates, and deletes (including table truncates).

"CALL TASK" is a thing, but not for this.

I'm leaning towards "CALL TASK," but I remember there being some confusion about that in our last study group.

I feel like "RUN ROOT TASK" could be the answer since it specifies the root task, but I can't recall if that's the standard terminology.

I remember practicing a similar question, and I think "EXECUTE TASK" was mentioned as a possible command, but it doesn't sound quite right for this context.

I think the command might be "RUN TASK," but I'm not entirely sure if that's the exact phrasing used in the documentation.

Ah, this is a good one. I remember learning about this in class. The answer is B. CALL TASK. That's the command to manually trigger a scheduled task outside of its normal schedule.

I think the answer is C. EXECUTE TASK. That sounds like the right command to manually run a scheduled task, but I'm not 100% sure.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know there's a way to manually run a task, but I can't remember the exact command. I'll have to think this through carefully.

D) RUN ROOT TASK has my vote. It's got 'root' in the name, so it must be the one to use, right? I mean, who doesn't love a good root task?

Yeah, I'm also leaning towards RUN ROOT TASK. It just makes sense to trigger the root task directly.
