Question 1

A customer has asked for a five-node search head cluster (SHC), but does not have the storage budget to

use a replication factor greater than 2. They would like to understand what might happen in terms of the

users’ ability to view historic scheduled search results if they log onto a search head which doesn’t contain

one of the 2 copies of a given search artifact.

Which of the following statements best describes what would happen in this scenario?

A : The search head that the user has logged onto will proxy the required artifact over to itself from a search head that currently holds a copy. A copy will also be replicated from that search head permanently, so it is available for future use.

B : Because the dispatch folder containing the search results is not present on the search head, the user will not be able to view the search results.

C : The user will not be able to see the results of the search until one of the search heads is restarted, forcing synchronization of all dispatched artifacts across all search heads.

D : The user will not be able to see the results of the search until the Splunk administrator issues the apply shcluster-bundle command on the search head deployer, forcing synchronization of all dispatched artifacts across all search heads.

Answer: A

Question 2

An index receives approximately 50GB of data per day per indexer at an even and consistent rate. The

customer would like to keep this data searchable for a minimum of 30 days. In addition, they have hourly

scheduled searches that process a week’s worth of data and are quite sensitive to search performance.

Given ideal conditions (no restarts, nor drops/bursts in data volume), and following PS best practices, which

of the following sets of indexes.conf settings can be leveraged to meet the requirements?

A : frozenTimePeriodInSecs, maxDataSize, maxVolumeDataSizeMB, maxHotBuckets

B : maxDataSize, maxTotalDataSizeMB, maxHotBuckets, maxGlobalDataSizeMB

C : maxDataSize, frozenTimePeriodInSecs, maxVolumeDataSizeMB

D : frozenTimePeriodInSecs, maxWarmDBCount, homePath.maxDataSizeMB, maxHotSpanSecs

Answer: B

Question 3

A customer would like to remove the output_file capability from users with the default user role to stop them from filling up the disk on the search head with lookup files. What is the best way to remove this capability from users?

A : Create a new role without the output_file capability that inherits the default user role and assign it to the users.

B : Create a new role with the output_file capability that inherits the default user role and assign it to the users.

C : Edit the default user role and remove the output_file capability.

D : Clone the default user role, remove the output_file capability, and assign it to the users.

Answer: C

Question 4

When setting up a multisite search head and indexer cluster, which nodes are required to declare site membership?

A : Search head cluster members, deployer, indexers, cluster master

B : Search head cluster members, deployment server, deployer, indexers, cluster master

C : All splunk nodes, including forwarders, must declare site membership

D : Search head cluster members, indexers, cluster master

Answer: D

Question 5

A customer has a number of inefficient regex replacement transforms being applied. When under heavy load the indexers are struggling to maintain the expected indexing rate. In a worst case scenario, which queue(s) would be expected to fill up?

A : Typing, merging, parsing, input

B : Parsing

C : Typing

D : Indexing, typing, merging, parsing, input

Answer: B
