Which of these generates a summary index containing a count of events by productId?

A| stats count by productId

B| stats sum (productId)

C| sistats count by productId

Dsistats summary_index by productid

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

To generate a summary index containing a count of events by productId, the correct search command would be | stats count by productId (Option A). This command aggregates the events by productId, counting the number of events for each unique productId value. The stats command is a fundamental Splunk command used for aggregation and summarization, making it suitable for creating summary data like counts by specific fields.

D seems off, it should be stats not sistats.

Surprised that C is even an option, that's not a valid command!

I’m confused about the spelling in option C; it says "sistats" instead of "stats." That can't be right, can it?

I feel like I’ve seen a question similar to this before, and I think it was definitely about using "count." So, A seems likely.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about "sum" not being the right function for counting. Maybe it's A?

I think option A is correct because it uses "stats count by productId," which sounds like what we practiced for counting events.

Option A seems to be the one that generates the summary index with the count of events by productId, so that's my best guess.

Option A sounds right to me. I remember seeing examples of that in the Django documentation. The other options don't seem to match what I've seen before.

Ah, this is a tricky one. I can see the logic behind a few of these options, but I'm not totally confident in any of them. Maybe I'll need to re-read the question a few times and think it through step-by-step. Documenting the stakeholder discussions does seem like a good starting point, but I'm not sure if that's the complete solution.

I've seen this problem before. My guess is it's either the StoreFront address in the Citrix Gateway profile or the missing DNS host entry on StoreFront.

I think the user policy would be the best option here, since it's specifically about policies that apply to users.

B? Really? That just sums up the productId values, not the count of events. This is an easy one, folks.

I'm going with C because it sounds like it might be a special Splunk command, and who doesn't love a little Splunk magic?
