Question #21

Question #22
A customer wants to understand how Splunk bucket types (hot, warm, cold) impact search performance within their environment. Their indexers have a single storage device for all data. What is the proper message to communicate to the customer?
  1. A
    The bucket types (hot, warm, or cold) have the same search performance characteristics within the customer's environment.
  2. B
    While hot, warm, and cold buckets have the same search performance characteristics within the customers environment, due to their optimized structure, the thawed buckets are the most performant.
  3. C
    Searching hot and warm buckets result in best performance because by default the cold buckets are miniaturized by removing TSIDX files to save on storage cost.
  4. D
    Because the cold buckets are written to a cheaper/slower storage volume, they will be slower to search compared to hot and warm buckets which are written to Solid State Disk (SSD).

Correct Answer:
D

Question #23
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?
  1. A
    frozenTimePeriodInSecs, maxDataSize, maxVolumeDataSizeMB, maxHotBuckets
  2. B
    maxDataSize, maxTotalDataSizeMB, maxHotBuckets, maxGlobalDataSizeMB
  3. C
    maxDataSize, frozenTimePeriodInSecs, maxVolumeDataSizeMB
  4. D
    frozenTimePeriodInSecs, maxWarmDBCount, homePath.maxDataSizeMB, maxHotSpanSecs

Correct Answer:
B

Question #24
A customer has a Universal Forwarder (UF) with an inputs.conf monitoring its splunkd.log. The data is sent through a heavy forwarder to an indexer.
Where does the Index time parsing occur?
  1. A
    Indexer
  2. B
    Universal forwarder
  3. C
    Search head
  4. D
    Heavy forwarder

Correct Answer:
D

Question #25
The customer wants to migrate their current Splunk Index cluster to new hardware to improve indexing and search performance. What is the correct process and procedure for this task?
  1. A
    1. Install new indexers. 2. Configure indexers into the cluster as peers; ensure they receive the same configuration via the deployment server. 3. Decommission old peers one at a time. 4. Remove old peers from the CM's list. 5. Update forwarders to forward to the new peers.
  2. B
    1. Install new indexers. 2. Configure indexers into the cluster as peers; ensure they receive the cluster bundle and the same configuration as original peers. 3. Decommission old peers one at a time. 4. Remove old peers from the CM's list. 5. Update forwarders to forward to the new peers.
  3. C
    1. Install new indexers. 2. Configure indexers into the cluster as peers; ensure they receive the same configuration via the deployment server. 3. Update forwarders to forward to the new peers. 4. Decommission old peers on at a time. 5. Restart the cluster master (CM).
  4. D
    1. Install new indexers. 2. Configure indexers into the cluster as peers; ensure they receive the cluster bundle and the same configuration as original peers. 3. Update forwarders to forward to the new peers. 4. Decommission old peers one at a time. 5. Remove old peers from the CM's list.

Correct Answer:
C
