Splunk SPLK-3002 Exam - Topic 6 Question 55 Discussion

Actual exam question for Splunk's SPLK-3002 exam

Question #: 55
Topic #: 6

Which of the following are characteristics of ITSI service dependencies? (select all that apply)

AIf a primary service has a dependent service KPI and the KPI's importance level is changed, the dependency is broken.

BIt is best practice to use the dependent service's built-in 'ServiceHealthScore' KPI to reflect impact to the primary service.

CSetting the dependent service KPI importance level will be treated as any other KPI in the primary service's health score.

DImpactful dependent services should only be configured to one primary service to avoid false negatives in Multi KPI Alerts.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B, C

In the context of Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI), service dependencies allow for the modeling of relationships between services, where the health of one service (dependent) can affect the health of another (primary).

B) It is best practice to use the dependent service's built-in 'ServiceHealthScore' KPI to reflect impact to the primary service: Utilizing the 'ServiceHealthScore' KPI of a dependent service as part of the primary service's health calculation is a recommended practice. This approach ensures that changes in the health of the dependent service directly influence the primary service's overall health score, providing a more holistic view of service health within the IT environment.

C) Setting the dependent service KPI importance level will be treated as any other KPI in the primary service's health score: When a dependent service's KPI is incorporated into a primary service, the importance level assigned to this KPI is factored into the primary service's overall health score calculation just like any other KPI. This means that the impact of the dependent service on the primary service can be weighted according to the business significance of the relationship between the services.

The other options are not accurate representations of ITSI service dependencies. Changes in KPI importance levels do not break dependencies, and there is no restriction on configuring impactful dependent services to only one primary service, as dependencies can be complex and multi-layered across various services.

I’m not sure about A, that sounds a bit extreme.

A is definitely true, changing importance breaks the dependency.

I vaguely remember something about configuring impactful dependent services to multiple primary services, but I can't remember if that leads to false negatives or not.

I practiced a question similar to this where we talked about how dependent service KPIs are treated in health scores. I feel like option C might be correct.

I think using the 'ServiceHealthScore' KPI is a best practice, but I can't recall if it's specifically for reflecting impact on the primary service or something else.

I remember discussing how changing the importance level of a dependent service KPI could affect the primary service, but I'm not sure if it actually breaks the dependency.

Ah, the last option about configuring impactful dependent services to only one primary service - that's an interesting tip. I'll keep that in mind as I think through the best way to approach this type of question.

The third option about the dependent service KPI importance level being treated like any other KPI in the primary service's health score - that seems like a key point to remember. I'll make sure I understand that well.

I'm a bit confused by the wording on some of these options. I'll need to make sure I fully grasp the concepts of service dependencies and KPI importance levels before selecting the right answers.

Okay, let me see here. The first option talks about a dependency being broken if the KPI importance level changes - that seems important to understand. The second option mentions using the dependent service's built-in KPI, which could be a good strategy.

Hmm, this question seems to be testing our understanding of ITSI service dependencies. I'll need to carefully read through the options and think about how changes to a dependent service's KPI importance level could impact the primary service.

I'm pretty confident this is asking about the onPressed method, which is used to define the action that should be taken when the floating action button is tapped.

Ah, I remember learning about this in class. The Product Backlog is continuously updated to reflect the customer's changing needs, so I believe the correct answer is when the customer requests a new requirement.
