Increasing inventory levels seems off to me; I thought supplier ratings were more about quality and reliability than just stock levels.

Let me think this through step-by-step. Splunk has a well-defined directory structure, so the indexes must be in one of the standard locations. I'll eliminate the options that don't seem right and focus on the most likely choice.

I'm pretty sure I read that documenting overlaps is crucial for future service evolution, so option D sounds right to me, but I hope I'm not mixing it up with something else!
