Which of the following commands is used to clear the KV store?
Correct Answer: A
Explanation The splunk clean kvstore command is used to clear the KV store. This command will delete all the collections and documents in the KV store and reset it to an empty state. This command can be useful for troubleshooting KV store issues or resetting the KV store data. The splunk clear kvstore, splunk delete kvstore, and splunk reinitialize kvstore commands are not valid Splunk commands. For more information, see Use the CLI to manage the KV store in the Splunk documentation.
Question 102
Which of the following statements describe search head clustering? (Select all that apply.)
Correct Answer: A,B,D
Search head clustering is a Splunk feature that allows a group of search heads to share configurations, apps, and knowledge objects, and to provide high availability and scalability for searching. Search head clustering has the following characteristics: * A deployer is required. A deployer is a Splunk instance that distributes the configurations and apps to the members of the search head cluster. The deployer is not a member of the cluster, but a separate instance that communicates with the cluster master. * At least three search heads are needed. A search head cluster must have at least three search heads to form a quorum and to ensure high availability. If the cluster has less than three search heads, it cannot function properly and will enter a degraded mode. * The deployer must have sufficient CPU and network resources to process service requests and push * configurations. The deployer is responsible for handling the requests from the cluster master and the cluster members, and for pushing the configurations and apps to the cluster members. Therefore, the deployer must have enough CPU and network resources to perform these tasks efficiently and reliably. Search heads do not need to meet the high-performance reference server requirements, as this is not a mandatory condition for search head clustering. The high-performance reference server requirements are only recommended for optimal performance and scalability of Splunk deployments, but they are not enforced by Splunk.
Question 103
To improve Splunk performance, parallelIngestionPipelines setting can be adjusted on which of the following components in the Splunk architecture? (Select all that apply.)
What is the default log size for Splunk internal logs?
Correct Answer: C
Splunk internal logs are stored in the SPLUNK_HOME/var/log/splunk directory by default. The default log size for Splunk internal logs is 25 MB, which means that when a log file reaches 25 MB, Splunk rolls it to a backup file and creates a new log file. The default number of backup files is 5, which means that Splunk keeps up to 5 backup files for each log file
Question 105
Which two sections can be expanded using the Search Job Inspector?
Correct Answer: C,D
Explanation The Search Job Inspector can be used to expand the following sections: Search job properties and Optimization suggestions. The Search Job Inspector is a tool that provides detailed information about a search job, such as the search parameters, the search statistics, the search timeline, and the search log. The Search Job Inspector can be accessed by clicking the Job menu in the Search bar and selecting Inspect Job. The Search Job Inspector has several sections that can be expanded or collapsed by clicking the arrow icon next to the section name. The Search job properties section shows the basic information about the search job, such as the SID, the status, the duration, the disk usage, and the scan count. The Optimization suggestions section shows the suggestions for improving the search performance, such as using transforming commands, filtering events, or reducing fields. The Execution costs and Saved search history sections are not part of the Search Job Inspector, and they cannot be expanded. The Execution costs section is part of the Search Dashboard, which shows the relative costs of each search component, such as commands, lookups, or subsearches. The Saved search history section is part of the Saved Searches page, which shows the history of the saved searches that have been run by the user or by a schedule
