Exam Certified Data Engineer Professional topic 1 question 2 discussion

The minimal permission a user needs to start (i.e., restart a terminated cluster) and attach to an already configured Databricks cluster is "Can Restart" privileges on the required cluster. This allows users to restart and attach to clusters but not manage or modify them.

suretly D

Restart is necessary to start the cluster

There are three types of permissions: 1. Can Restart 2. Can Attach To 3. Can Manage Can manage provides both the permissions. Can restart doesn't provide "Can Attach To" permission, So the correct answer is "A"

100% D User has to be able to start the cluster as it shuts down after 30 min of inactivity. Everything is explain clearly in the table here - Compute ACLs: https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/security/auth/access-control/#clusters

To execute workloads against an already configured cluster in Databricks, users need the following minimum permissions: 1. Cluster Creation Allowed: Users need the ability to create clusters, which ensures they can start a cluster if it's not already running or if the cluster has been terminated after the inactivity period. 2. "Can Attach To" Privileges on the Required Cluster: This permission allows users to attach their notebooks or jobs to the existing cluster. The "Can Attach To" permission is the key to allowing users to interact with the cluster for running jobs or notebooks.

I should choose the C answer because the "Can Attach To" permission is the minimal requirement for a user to attach to an interactive cluster and execute workloads.

can manage all permession workspace admin irrelevant can attach to cannot start the cluster can restart correct can do both cluster creation + restart (cluster is alreeady created, dont need to give permission)

You do not need all the permissions, just the lowest

https://docs.azure.cn/en-us/databricks/security/auth-authz/access-control/cluster-acl#cluster-permissions

if added to a workspace, it has the default settings of the users in that workspace

Can Restart only allows restarting the cluster and does not grant permission to attach workloads.

Option C makes more sense since the question says also attach. Not just restart.

To execute workloads, users need to be able to attach their notebooks or jobs to the cluster. The “Can Attach To” privilege specifically allows users to attach to and use the cluster, which is essential for running their workloads.

Questions is users need to start & use so it will be Can restrat . Can attach cannot start compute

D is the correct answer. Focus on this line "user would need to start and attach to an already configured cluster."
