Answer: A,D
Explanation:
Explanation
A multi-site indexer cluster can be configured by directly editing
SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/local/server.conf or running a splunk edit cluster-config command from the CLI.
These methods allow the administrator to specify the site attribute for each indexer node and the site_replication_factor and site_search_factor for the cluster. Configuring a multi-site indexer cluster via Splunk Web or directly editing SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/default/server.conf are not supported methods.
For more information, see Configure the indexer cluster with server.conf in the Splunk documentation.
NEW QUESTION # 27
In search head clustering, which of the following methods can you use to transfer captaincy to a different member? (Select all that apply.)
- A. Use the Search Head Clustering settings menu from Splunk Web on any member.
- B. Run the splunk transfer shcluster-captain command from the member you would like to become the captain.
- C. Use the Monitoring Console.
- D. Run the splunk transfer shcluster-captain command from the current captain.
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
Explanation
In search head clustering, there are two methods to transfer captaincy to a different member. One method is to use the Search Head Clustering settings menu from Splunk Web on any member. This method allows the user to select a specific member to become the new captain, or to let Splunk choose the best candidate. The other method is to run the splunk transfer shcluster-captain command from the member that the user wants to become the new captain. This method requires the user to know the name of the target member and to have access to the CLI of that member. Using the Monitoring Console is not a method to transfer captaincy, because the Monitoring Console does not have the option to change the captain. Running the splunk transfer shcluster-captain command from the current captain is not a method to transfer captaincy, because this command will fail with an error message

NEW QUESTION # 30
Which of the following are true statements about Splunk indexer clustering?
- A. The search head must run the same or a later Splunk version than the peer nodes.
- B. The peer nodes must run the same or a later Splunk version than the master node.
- C. All peer nodes must run exactly the same Splunk version.
- D. The master node must run the same or a later Splunk version than search heads.
Answer: A,C
Explanation:
Explanation
The following statements are true about Splunk indexer clustering:
* All peer nodes must run exactly the same Splunk version. This is a requirement for indexer clustering, as different Splunk versions may have different data formats or features that are incompatible with each other. All peer nodes must run the same Splunk version as the master node and the search heads that connect to the cluster.
* The search head must run the same or a later Splunk version than the peer nodes. This is a recommendation for indexer clustering, as a newer Splunk version may have new features or bug fixes that improve the search functionality or performance. The search head should not run an older Splunk version than the peer nodes, as this may cause search errors or failures. The following statements are false about Splunk indexer clustering:
* The master node must run the same or a later Splunk version than the search heads. This is not a requirement or a recommendation for indexer clustering, as the master node does not participate in the search process. The master node should run the same Splunk version as the peer nodes, as this ensures the cluster compatibility and functionality.
* The peer nodes must run the same or a later Splunk version than the master node. This is not a requirement or a recommendation for indexer clustering, as the peer nodes do not coordinate the cluster activities. The peer nodes should run the same Splunk version as the master node, as this ensures the cluster compatibility and functionality. For more information, see [About indexer clusters and index replication] and [Upgrade an indexer cluster] in the Splunk documentation.
NEW QUESTION # 31
In a four site indexer cluster, which configuration stores two searchable copies at the origin site, one searchable copy at site2, and a total of four searchable copies?
- A. site_replication_factor = origin:2, site1:2, total:4
- B. site_search_factor = origin:2, site1:2, total:4
- C. site_search_factor = origin:2, site2:1, total:4
- D. site_replication_factor = origin:2, site2:1, total:4
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
In a four site indexer cluster, the configuration that stores two searchable copies at the origin site, one searchable copy at site2, and a total of four searchable copies is site_search_factor = origin:2, site2:1, total:4.
This configuration tells the cluster to maintain two copies of searchable data at the site where the data originates, one copy of searchable data at site2, and a total of four copies of searchable data across all sites.
The site_search_factor determines how many copies of searchable data are maintained by the cluster for each site. The site_replication_factor determines how many copies of raw data are maintained by the cluster for each site. For more information, see Configure multisite indexer clusters with server.conf in the Splunk documentation.

Which search head cluster component is responsible for pushing knowledge bundles to search peers, replicating configuration changes to search head cluster members, and scheduling jobs across the search head cluster?
- A. Captain
- B. Master
- C. Deployer
- D. Deployment server
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
The captain is the search head cluster component that is responsible for pushing knowledge bundles to search peers, replicating configuration changes to search head cluster members, and scheduling jobs across the search head cluster. The captain is elected from among the search head cluster members and performs these tasks in addition to serving search requests. The master is the indexer cluster component that is responsible for managing the replication and availability of data across the peer nodes. The deployer is the standalone instance that is responsible for distributing apps and other configurations to the search head cluster members. The deployment server is the instance that is responsible for distributing apps and other configurations to the deployment clients, such as forwarders

NEW QUESTION # 41
Indexing is slow and real-time search results are delayed in a Splunk environment with two indexers and one search head. There is ample CPU and memory available on the indexers. Which of the following is most likely to improve indexing performance?
- A. Decrease the maximum size of the search pipelines in limits.conf
- B. Increase the maximum number of hot buckets in indexes.conf
- C. Decrease the maximum concurrent scheduled searches in limits.conf
- D. Increase the number of parallel ingestion pipelines in server.conf
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
Increasing the number of parallel ingestion pipelines in server.conf is most likely to improve indexing performance when indexing is slow and real-time search results are delayed in a Splunk environment with two indexers and one search head. The parallel ingestion pipelines allow Splunk to process multiple data streams simultaneously, which increases the indexing throughput and reduces the indexing latency. Increasing the maximum number of hot buckets in indexes.conf will not improve indexing performance, but rather increase the disk space consumption and the bucket rolling time. Decreasing the maximum size of the search pipelines in limits.conf will not improve indexing performance, but rather reduce the search performance and the search concurrency. Decreasing the maximum concurrent scheduled searches in limits.conf will not improve indexing performance, but rather reduce the search capacity and the search availability. For more information, see Configure parallel ingestion pipelines in the Splunk documentation.
NEW QUESTION # 42
Which component in the splunkd.log will log information related to bad event breaking?
- A. EventBreaking
- B. Audittrail
- C. AggregatorMiningProcessor
- D. IndexingPipeline
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
The AggregatorMiningProcessor component in the splunkd.log file will log information related to bad event breaking. The AggregatorMiningProcessor is responsible for breaking the incoming data into events and applying the props.conf settings. If there is a problem with the event breaking, such as incorrect timestamps, missing events, or merged events, the AggregatorMiningProcessor will log the error or warning messages in the splunkd.log file. The Audittrail component logs information about the audit events, such as user actions, configuration changes, and search activity. The EventBreaking component logs information about the event breaking rules, such as the LINE_BREAKER and SHOULD_LINEMERGE settings. The IndexingPipeline component logs information about the indexing pipeline, such as the parsing, routing, and indexing phases.
For more information, see About Splunk Enterprise logging and [Configure event line breaking] in the Splunk documentation.
NEW QUESTION # 43
In an existing Splunk environment, the new index buckets that are created each day are about half the size of the incoming data. Within each bucket, about 30% of the space is used for rawdata and about 70% for index files.
What additional information is needed to calculate the daily disk consumption, per indexer, if indexer clustering is implemented?
- A. Total daily indexing volume, number of peer nodes, and number of accelerated searches.
- B. Total daily indexing volume, number of peer nodes, replication factor, and search factor.
- C. Replication factor, search factor, number of accelerated searches, and total disk size across cluster.
- D. Total daily indexing volume, replication factor, search factor, and number of search heads.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
The additional information that is needed to calculate the daily disk consumption, per indexer, if indexer clustering is implemented, is the total daily indexing volume, the number of peer nodes, the replication factor, and the search factor. These information are required to estimate how much data is ingested, how many copies of raw data and searchable data are maintained, and how many indexers are involved in the cluster. The number of accelerated searches, the number of search heads, and the total disk size across the cluster are not relevant for calculating the daily disk consumption, per indexer. For more information, see [Estimate your storage requirements] in the Splunk documentation.
