A customer has been using Splunk for one year, utilizing a single/all-in-one instance. This single Splunk server is now struggling to cope with the daily ingest rate. Also, Splunk has become a vital system in day-to-day operations making high availability a consideration for the Splunk service. The customer is unsure how to design the new environment topology in order to provide this.

Which resource would help the customer gather the requirements for their new architecture?

  1. Direct the customer to the docs.splunk.com and tell them that all the information to help them select the right design is documented there.
  2. Ask the customer to engage with the sales team immediately as they probably need a larger license.
  3. Refer the customer to answers.splunk.com as someone else has probably already designed a system that meets their requirements.
  4. Refer the customer to the Splunk Validated Architectures document in order to guide them through which approved architectures could meet their requirements.

Answer(s): D


Reference:

The customer has an indexer cluster supporting a wide variety of search needs, including scheduled search, data model acceleration, and summary indexing. Here is an excerpt from the cluster mater’s server.conf:


Which strategy represents the minimum and least disruptive change necessary to protect the searchability of the indexer cluster in case of indexer failure?

  1. Enable maintenance mode on the CM to prevent excessive fix-up and bring the failed indexer back online.
  2. Leave replication_factor=2, increase search_factor=2 and enable summary_replication.
  3. Convert the cluster to multi-site and modify the server.conf to be site_replication_factor=2, site_search_factor=2.
  4. Increase replication_factor=3, search_factor=2 to protect the data, and allow there to always be a searchable copy.

Answer(s): D



What is the primary driver behind implementing indexer clustering in a customer’s environment?

  1. To improve resiliency as the search load increases.
  2. To reduce indexing latency.
  3. To scale out a Splunk environment to offer higher performance capability.
  4. To provide higher availability for buckets of data.

Answer(s): D


Reference:

https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.1.0/Indexer/Howclusteredsearchworks



In a single indexer cluster, where should the Monitoring Console (MC) be installed?

  1. Deployer sharing with master cluster.
  2. License master that has 50 clients or more.
  3. Cluster master node
  4. Production Search Head

Answer(s): C


Reference:

https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.1.0/DMC/WheretohostDMC



A customer has downloaded the Splunk App for AWS from Splunkbase and installed it in a search head cluster following the instructions using the deployer. A power user modifies a dashboard in the app on one of the search head cluster members. The app containing an updated dashboard is upgraded to the latest version by following the instructions via the deployer.

What happens?

  1. The updated dashboard will not be deployed globally to all users, due to the conflict with the power user’s modified version of the dashboard.
  2. Applying the search head cluster bundle will fail due to the conflict.
  3. The updated dashboard will be available to the power user.
  4. The updated dashboard will not be available to the power user; they will see their modified version.

Answer(s): A

question 35 is incorrect, the correct answer is c, it even states so: explanation: when a vm is infected with ransomware, you should not restore the vm to the infected vm. this is because the ransomware will still be present on the vm, and it will encrypt the files again. you should also not restore the vm to any vm within the companys subscription. this is because the ransomware could spread to other vms in the subscription. the best way to restore a vm that is infected with ransomware is to restore it to a new azure vm. this will ensure that the ransomware is not present on the new vm.
