Splunk SPLK-2002 Exam - Topic 10 Question 105 Discussion

Posted by Dianne on Jan 14, 2025 at 05:52 AM

Which of the following is true for indexer cluster knowledge bundles?

Suggested Answer: B

According to the Splunk documentation1, indexer cluster knowledge bundles are the configuration files that the cluster master distributes to the peer nodes as part of the cluster configuration bundle. The knowledge bundles contain the knowledge objects, such as event types, tags, lookups, and so on, that are relevant for indexing and searching the data. The cluster master creates the knowledge bundles by merging the app-name/default and app-name/local directories from the apps that reside on the master node.The cluster master then pushes the knowledge bundles to the peer nodes, where they reside under the $SPLUNK_HOME/var/run directory2. The other options are false because:

Only app-name/local is pushed. This is false because the cluster master pushes both the app-name/default and app-name/local directories, after merging them, to the peer nodes.The app-name/local directory contains the local customizations of the app configuration, while the app-name/default directory contains the default app configuration3.

Only app-name/default is pushed. This is false because the cluster master pushes both the app-name/default and app-name/local directories, after merging them, to the peer nodes.The app-name/default directory contains the default app configuration, while the app-name/local directory contains the local customizations of the app configuration3.

app-name/default and app-name/local are pushed without change. This is false because the cluster master merges the app-name/default and app-name/local directories before pushing them to the peer nodes.This ensures that the peer nodes have the latest and consistent configuration of the apps3.

D sounds off too, pushing without change seems unlikely.

C is definitely not right, only default doesn't cover it.

Wait, are we sure about that? I thought it was just A.

Totally agree with B, makes the most sense!

I think B is correct, they get merged before pushing.

I’m leaning towards D, but I’m not entirely confident. I feel like there was a detail about how they are handled before pushing.
BA

I vaguely recall something about only pushing app-name/local, but that seems too simple for this question.

I practiced a similar question where it was about merging configurations, so I feel like B might be the right answer here.

I think I remember that both app-name/default and app-name/local are involved, but I'm not sure if they get merged or pushed separately.
AN

This question is really throwing me for a loop. I'm not familiar with the concept at all, and none of the options are jumping out at me as the clear answer. I guess I'll have to make an educated guess and hope for the best.

Okay, I think I've got a handle on this. Based on my understanding, the correct answer is option B - app-name/default and app-name/local are merged before pushing. I'm fairly confident in that, but I'll double-check my work just to be sure.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I think I remember something about app-name/default and app-name/local, but I'm not sure how they're handled. I'll have to think it through and see if I can eliminate any of the options.
DO

I'm not too sure about this one. The question seems a bit confusing, and I'm not familiar with the concept of "indexer cluster knowledge bundles". I'll need to read through the options carefully and try to reason through it.

Honestly, I'm just hoping the answer isn't 'all of the above' - that would be a cruel joke!

I'm not sure, but I think C) Only app-name/default is pushed makes sense too, as it simplifies the process.

I agree with Lelia, because merging the knowledge bundles ensures that all configurations are included.

C has got to be the right answer. Why would we push both bundles separately? That's just wasteful.

I'm gonna go with B. Merging the default and local bundles makes sense before pushing them.

D seems like the correct answer to me. Why would we only push one of the bundles when we have both available?

Exactly, pushing both bundles without any changes ensures that all the necessary knowledge is available in the indexer cluster.
