A company has a resource monitor with a quota of 500 credits. The monitor has a notify action at 50% and a suspend action at 100%. The warehouse is currently at 60% usage. The administrator wants to change the suspend action to 'suspend immediately' at 100%. What is the impact of this change?

The change will take effect immediately, and if usage reaches 100%, the warehouse will be suspended immediately.

The change will also affect the notify action at 50%.

The change will only take effect after the current month's quota resets.

The change will require recreating the resource monitor.

What does the credit quota in a resource monitor specify?

The minimum number of credits required to run a warehouse
