Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

Pausing a Schedule:

Pausing the schedule is the best practice for temporarily stopping a process. This maintains the schedule's configuration and simply suspends its execution for the specified period.

Maintaining Configuration:

Pausing the schedule ensures that once the period is over, the same schedule can be resumed without needing to recreate it or adjust any start/end dates. This approach is simpler and minimizes the risk of configuration errors.

Reactivation:

After the required period, the schedule can be easily unpaused to resume its normal operation.

Pause the schedule, easy peasy. No need to get fancy with retirement or cloning.

Yeah, no need to complicate things with retiring or cloning. Just hit pause and resume later.

B is a good idea, but I'd rather not have to deal with cloning and managing multiple schedules if I don't have to.

I disagree, I believe we should set an end date on the schedule and create a new one to start after 3 months.

Option C seems like a lot of unnecessary work. Why create a new schedule when you can just set an end date on the existing one?
