Sure Pass Exam SPLK-2002 PDF

According to the Splunk documentation1, determining data capacity for an index is a complex task that depends on several factors, such as:

• Average size of event data. This is the average number of bytes per event that you send to Splunk. The larger the events, the more storage space they require and the more indexing time they consume.
• Number of data sources. This is the number of different types of data that you send to Splunk, such as logs, metrics, network packets, etc. The more data sources you have, the more diverse and complex your data is, and the more processing and parsing Splunk needs to do to index it.
• Peak data rates. This is the maximum amount of data that you send to Splunk per second, minute, hour, or day. The higher the peak data rates, the more load and pressure Splunk faces to index the data in a timely manner.

The other option is false because:

• Number of concurrent searches on data. This is not a factor that affects daily indexing volume, as it is related to the search performance and the search scheduler, not the indexing process. However, it can affect the overall resource utilization and the responsiveness of Splunk2.

• The deployer is a Splunk Enterprise instance that distributes apps and other configurations to the members of a search head cluster1.
• The deployer cannot share functionality with any other Splunk Enterprise instance, including the license master, the master node, or the monitoring console2.
• However, the search head cluster members can share functionality with the master node and the monitoring console, as long as they are not designated as the captain of the cluster3.
• Therefore, the correct answer is B. License master, as it is the only instance that cannot share functionality with the deployer under any circumstances.

According to the Splunk documentation1, the Splunk Deployer deploys app content to the etc/slave-apps/ directory on the search head cluster members by default. This directory contains the apps that the deployer distributes to the members as part of the configuration bundle. The other options are false because:

• The etc/apps/ directory contains the apps that are installed locally on each member, not the apps that are distributed by the deployer2.
• The etc/shcluster/ directory contains the configuration files for the search head cluster, not the apps that are distributed by the deployer3.
• The etc/deploy-apps/ directory is not a valid Splunk directory, as it does not exist in the Splunk file system structure4.

The Splunk deployer sends apps to the search head cluster members by default to the path etc/shcluster/<app-name>/default. The deployer is a Splunk component that distributes apps and configurations to members of a search head cluster.

Splunk's documentation recommends placing the configuration bundle in the $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/shcluster/apps directory on the deployer, which then gets distributed to the search head cluster members. However, it should be noted that within each app's directory, configurations can be under default or local subdirectories, with local taking precedence over default for configurations. The reference to etc/shcluster/<app-name>/default is not a standard directory structure and might be a misunderstanding. The correct path where the deployer pushes configuration bundles is $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/shcluster/apps
