Question #1
Which search string only returns events from hostWWW3?
- Ahost=*
- Bhost=WWW3Most Voted
- Chost=WWW*
- DHost=WWW3
Correct Answer:
B
B

The correct choice is B) host=WWW3 as it specifically matches the host name 'WWW3'. Options A and C use wildcard characters, resulting in broader search results that include other hosts beyond WWW3. Option D is incorrect due to the case sensitivity of field names in Splunk; 'Host' with a capital 'H' does not match the correct field name 'host'. Consequently, B accurately targets the desired metadata, resulting in precise querying for data from host 'WWW3' only.

- DDeployment server
Correct Answer:
B
B

The Forwarder component in Splunk is designed to reside on the machines where data originates. This is because it consumes minimal resources and has little impact on the system's performance, thus making it ideal for initial data capture and forwarding. This set-up ensures efficient and reliable data transmission to other Splunk components for indexing and analysis.
