- A
Create a separate sandbox environment that is isolated from production and uses mock endpoints for RFC calls.
Isolation prevents unintended effects on production.
- B
Use the same RFC destinations as production but disable the external system.
Why wrong: Disabling external system may cause errors; better to mock.
- C
Set up a VPN between the sandbox and the external system to test real connectivity.
Why wrong: Exposes external system to test traffic; not isolated.
- D
Configure the sandbox to use the production RFC endpoints but with read-only access.
Why wrong: Read-only may not be supported; risk of data modification.
PAS-C01 Migration Practice Question
This PAS-C01 practice question tests your understanding of migration. Read the scenario carefully and evaluate each option against the stated constraints before committing to an answer. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
A company is migrating its SAP ERP system to AWS. The system has a custom ABAP code that uses RFC calls to an external system. The company wants to test the migrated system in a sandbox environment before the final cutover. What is the best practice for handling the RFC connections during testing?

Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
Create a separate sandbox environment that is isolated from production and uses mock endpoints for RFC calls.
Option A is correct because using a sandbox environment disconnected from the production system prevents accidental data changes or impacts. Options B, C, D are incorrect because they either involve production connections or are not best practices.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Common exam traps
Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword
Many certification questions include familiar terms but test a specific constraint. Read the exact wording before choosing an answer that is generally true but wrong for this case.
Detailed technical explanation
How to think about this question
This question should be treated as a scenario, not a definition check. Identify the problem, the constraint and the best action. Then compare each option against those facts.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
- Find the constraint that changes the correct option.
- Eliminate answers that are true in general but not in this case.
- Use explanations to understand the rule behind the answer.
TExam Day Tips
- Underline the problem statement mentally.
- Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
- Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Real-world example
How this comes up in practice
A company's IT admin needs to give a contractor read-only access to production logs without sharing account credentials. Using role-based access control (RBAC) and temporary scoped permissions — not a permanent shared password — is the correct pattern. Questions like this test whether you can apply least-privilege access across cloud identity services.
