Splunk SPLK-1004 Exam - Topic 20 Question 38 Discussion
Topic #: 20
Which statement about .tsidx files is accurate?
A .tsidx (time-series index) file in Splunk consists of two main components:
Lexicon : A dictionary of unique terms (e.g., field names and values) extracted from indexed data.
Posting List : A mapping of terms in the lexicon to the locations (offsets) of events containing those terms.
Here's why this works:
Purpose of .tsidx Files : These files enable fast searching by indexing terms and their locations in the raw data. They are critical for efficient search performance.
Structure : The lexicon ensures that each term is stored only once, while the posting list links terms to their occurrences in events.
Other options explained:
Option B : Incorrect because Splunk does not remove .tsidx files every 5 minutes. These files are part of the index and persist until the associated data is aged out or manually deleted.
Option C : Incorrect because .tsidx files are updated as data is indexed, not at fixed intervals like every 30 minutes.
Option D : Incorrect because each bucket can contain multiple .tsidx files, depending on the volume of indexed data.
