D is tricky. Manual restarts aren't efficient. I’d stick with A or B.

C seems off. No license? That doesn't make sense for a deployment server.

I prefer B. It covers remote instances, which is more relevant in many setups.

Hmm, B) sounds like the most comprehensive option. I'd rather not deal with the hassle of a non-licensed deployment server.

D) seems like a good option, but automatic restarts are a must-have. Gotta keep those Splunk instances running smoothly.

B) is the way to go. Automatic restarts? Sign me up! I don't want to be the one manually restarting those instances.

I’m leaning towards option B because it mentions managing remote instances and the Enterprise license, but I’m not clear on the automatic restart part.

I feel like option A might be correct since it mentions local instances, but I thought deployment servers were mainly for remote management.

I remember practicing a question about deployment servers, and I think it definitely has to do with sending configurations. I just can't recall if it can restart instances automatically.
