Answer analysis

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

✓
Access the node, Save snapshot, Verify, Store securely
Why this is correct
This order is correct because you must first access the etcd node to run commands, then save the snapshot, verify its integrity, and finally store it securely.
✗
Save snapshot, Verify, Access the node, Store securely
Why it's wrong here
This order is incorrect because you cannot save a snapshot without first accessing the node. Verification also requires the snapshot file to exist.
✗
Access the node, Store securely, Save snapshot, Verify
Why it's wrong here
This order is incorrect because you must save the snapshot before storing it securely, and verification should occur after saving but before storage.
✗
Verify, Access the node, Save snapshot, Store securely
Why it's wrong here
This order is incorrect because verification requires an existing snapshot, so it cannot be the first step. Access the node must come first.
