Certified Pega Senior System Architect v7.2 — Question 20

You are working on an update to an application which only affects some rules for a certain case type. The customer has requested that a patch update be released.
How do you create the new ruleset version?

Answer options

• A. Use the Ruleset Maintenance wizard to merge the existing rules in the relevant rulesets to the new version.
• B. Create a branched ruleset, then copy the affected rules into the new branched ruleset.
• C. Use the Lock & Roll functionality to lock the current ruleset and increment the ruleset version.
• D. Use the Ruleset Maintenance wizard to skim the relevant rulesets to copy the highest version of existing rules to the new version.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, A, is right because using the Ruleset Maintenance wizard allows you to merge the existing rules directly into a new version, ensuring that only the relevant updates are applied. Option B is incorrect as creating a branched ruleset and copying rules does not directly merge changes. Option C is not suitable because Lock & Roll is used for locking existing rulesets rather than merging them. Option D also does not fit because skimming does not merge but rather takes the highest version, which is not what is needed in this scenario.
