Which is the least permissive role required to modify default deep dives?
Correct Answer: D
To modify default deep dives in Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI), the least permissive role typically required is the itoa_admin role. This role is specifically designed within ITSI to provide administrative capabilities, including the ability to configure and customize various aspects of ITSI, such as services, KPIs, and deep dives. The itoa_admin role has the necessary permissions to edit and manage default deep dives, enabling users with this role to tailor the deep dives to meet specific operational requirements and preferences. Other roles like itoa_analyst, admin, or power might not have sufficient privileges to modify default deep dives, as these roles are generally more restricted in terms of their ability to make broad changes within ITSI.
Question 12
Which scenario would benefit most by implementing ITSI?
Correct Answer: A
Reference: Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) is a monitoring and analytics solution that uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to provide insights into the health and performance of IT services. ITSI lets you create services that represent the critical components of your IT infrastructure, such as applications, databases, servers, networks, and so on. You can then monitor the status and performance of these services using key performance indicators (KPIs), which are metrics that measure aspects of service health, such as availability, latency, error rate, and so on. ITSI also provides tools for visualizing, investigating, and alerting on service issues, such as service analyzers, glass tables, deep dives, episode review, and so on. The scenario that would benefit most by implementing ITSI is monitoring of business service functionality, because ITSI enables you to measure and improve the quality and reliability of your IT services and align them with your business objectives.

Question 13
Which index contains ITSI Episodes?
Correct Answer: A
Question 14
Which index will contain useful error messages when troubleshooting ITSI issues?
Correct Answer: B
Question 15
What should be considered when onboarding data into a Splunk index, assuming that ITSI will need to use this data?
Correct Answer: B
Reference: When onboarding data into a Splunk index, assuming that ITSI will need to use this data, you should consider the following: B) Check if the data could leverage pre-built KPIs from modules, then use the correct TA to onboard the data. This is true because modules are pre-packaged sets of services, KPIs, and dashboards that are designed for specific types of data sources, such as operating systems, databases, web servers, and so on. Modules help you quickly set up and monitor your IT services using best practices and industry standards. To use modules, you need to install and configure the correct technical add-ons (TAs) that extract and normalize the data fields required by the modules. The other options are not things you should consider because: A) Use | stats functions in custom fields to prepare the data for KPI calculations. This is not true because using | stats functions in custom fields can cause performance issues and inaccurate results when calculating KPIs. You should use | stats functions only in base searches or ad hoc searches, not in custom fields. C) Make sure that all fields conform to CIM, then use the corresponding module to import related services. This is not true because not all modules require CIM-compliant data sources. Some modules have their own data models and field extractions that are specific to their data sources. You should check the documentation of each module to see what data requirements and dependencies they have. D) Plan to build as many data models as possible for ITSI to leverage. This is not true because building too many data models can cause performance issues and resource consumption in your Splunk environment. You should only build data models that are necessary and relevant for your ITSI use cases.
