A customer has a multisite cluster (two sites, each site in its own data center) and users experiencing a slow response when searches are run on search heads located in either site. The Search Job Inspector shows the delay is being caused by search heads on either site waiting for results to be returned by indexers on the opposing site. The network team has confirmed that there is limited bandwidth available between the two data centers, which are in different geographic locations.
Which of the following would be the least expensive and easiest way to improve search performance?
A customer has a new set of hardware to replace their aging indexers. What method would reduce the amount of bucket replication operations during the migration process?
Which configuration item should be set to false to significantly improve data ingestion performance?
A customer’s deployment server is overwhelmed with forwarder connections after adding an additional 1000 clients. The default phone home interval is set to 60 seconds. To reduce the number of connection failures to the DS what is recommended?
Consider the scenario where the /var/log directory contains the files secure, messages, cron, audit. A customer has created the following inputs.conf stanzas in the same Splunk app in order to attempt to monitor the files secure and messages:
Which file(s) will actually be actively monitored?
The Splunk Validated Architectures (SVAs) document provides a series of approved Splunk topologies. Which statement accurately describes how it should be used by a customer?
In which directory should base config app(s) be placed to initialize an indexer?
Which of the following server roles should be configured for a host which indexes its internal logs locally?
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?
