Option B has to be the right answer. Configuring data transformations in props.conf and transform.conf is the way to go. I wonder if there's a cheat sheet for all these Splunk commands?

I'm not sure about the details of SEDCMD, but option D sounds like it could be the right answer. Manipulating data based on a REGEX pattern match seems like a useful capability.

That's true, SEDCMD can only be used to mask or truncate raw data, so option A is not correct.
