SnowPro Advanced Architect Exam - Question 52


An Architect has been asked to clone schema STAGING as it looked one week ago, Tuesday June 1st at 8:00 AM, to recover some objects.

The STAGING schema has 50 days of retention.

The Architect runs the following statement:

CREATE SCHEMA STAGING_CLONE CLONE STAGING at (timestamp => '2021-06-01 08:00:00');

The Architect receives the following error: Time travel data is not available for schema STAGING. The requested time is either beyond the allowed time travel period or before the object creation time.

The Architect then checks the schema history and sees the following:

CREATED_ON|NAME|DROPPED_ON -

2021-06-02 23:00:00 | STAGING | NULL

2021-05-01 10:00:00 | STAGING | 2021-06-02 23:00:00

How can cloning the STAGING schema be achieved?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

The error occurs because the STAGING schema was dropped on 2021-06-02 and the Architect is attempting to clone it as it looked on 2021-06-01. According to the time travel history, the schema STAGING was dropped and recreated on 2021-06-02, so it is necessary to undrop it first to access its state from the desired timestamp and then execute the clone operation.
