Splunk SPLK-1002 Exam - Topic 6 Question 95 Discussion

Posted by Donte on Aug 23, 2024 at 07:11 PM

Which of these stats commands will show the total bytes for each unique combination of page and server?

Suggested Answer: B

The correct command to show the total bytes for each unique combination of page and server isindex=web | stats sum (bytes) BY page server. In Splunk, thestatscommand is used to calculate aggregate statistics over the dataset, such as count, sum, avg, etc. When using theBYclause, it groups the results by the specified fields. The correct syntax does not include commas or the word 'AND' between the field names. Instead, it simply lists the field names separated by spaces within theBYclause.

Reference: The usage of thestatscommand with theBYclause is confirmed by examples in the Splunk Community, where it's explained thatstatswith aby foo barwill output one row for every unique combination of thebyfields1.

I thought it was A too, but I'm not 100% sure.

Wait, D? That doesn't seem right at all!

C looks wrong to me, "AND" isn't used like that.

I think B makes more sense, though.

A is definitely the correct one!

Option D seems off to me; I don't remember using "values" like that in the context of stats.
MA
Marva 12 months ago
I feel like "AND" in option C is wrong; I don't recall seeing that used in stats commands before.

I remember practicing a similar question, and I think "BY page server" in option B makes more sense for combining them.
DA

I think it's either A or B, but I'm not sure if "BY page BY server" is correct syntax.
RE

I think option A is the way to go here. Grouping by both page and server, and then summing the bytes, seems like the clearest way to get the total bytes for each unique combination. The other options don't seem to capture that as directly.
DE

I'm a bit confused by the "BY values (page) values (server)" syntax in option D. I'm not sure how that would work compared to the more standard "BY page BY server" approach. I'll need to double-check the documentation on that one.
DO

Okay, let me walk through this step-by-step. I know I need to group the data by both page and server, and then sum the bytes. Option A looks like it does that, so I'm leaning towards that as the answer.
AR

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. The wording is a bit tricky. I'll need to carefully read through each option and think about how the stats command works to make sure I get this right.
MO
Mollie 1 year ago
This looks like a straightforward stats command question. I think option A is the correct answer - it groups the data by both page and server, and then sums the bytes for each unique combination.
JA
Jame 1 year ago
Okay, let me see here. The key thing to focus on is whether the counter variable is global or local to the enclosed scope activity. I think I have a good handle on this, so I'll give it my best shot.
EL
Elden 1 year ago
Okay, I think I've got this. The key is understanding the responsibilities of the composition sub-controller. If it can't enter that role when invoked by the initiator, then the answer must be True.

I believe D) index=web | stats sum(bytes) BY values (page) values (server) is incorrect because it uses 'values' instead of 'BY'.
DO

I'm not sure, but I think C) index=web | stats sum(bytes) BY page AND server might also work.
