Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

When onboarding data into a Splunk index, assuming that ITSI will need to use this data, you should consider the following:

B) Check if the data could leverage pre-built KPIs from modules, then use the correct TA to onboard the data. This is true because modules are pre-packaged sets of services, KPIs, and dashboards that are designed for specific types of data sources, such as operating systems, databases, web servers, and so on. Modules help you quickly set up and monitor your IT services using best practices and industry standards. To use modules, you need to install and configure the correct technical add-ons (TAs) that extract and normalize the data fields required by the modules.

The other options are not things you should consider because:

A) Use | stats functions in custom fields to prepare the data for KPI calculations. This is not true because using | stats functions in custom fields can cause performance issues and inaccurate results when calculating KPIs. You should use | stats functions only in base searches or ad hoc searches, not in custom fields.

C) Make sure that all fields conform to CIM, then use the corresponding module to import related services. This is not true because not all modules require CIM-compliant data sources. Some modules have their own data models and field extractions that are specific to their data sources. You should check the documentation of each module to see what data requirements and dependencies they have.

D) Plan to build as many data models as possible for ITSI to leverage. This is not true because building too many data models can cause performance issues and resource consumption in your Splunk environment. You should only build data models that are necessary and relevant for your ITSI use cases.

B seems off, it doesn’t capture the KPI aspect at all!

Wait, is it really just a view? Sounds too simple for all that info.

I agree with A, it’s all about the metrics overlaid on the topology.

I might be mixing things up, but I thought a Glass Table was just a view of the topology without the KPI metrics.

I feel like the Glass Table is more than just a dashboard; it has to show the relationship between metrics and the system.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think it was about how KPIs relate to system topology.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. Is an ITSI Glass Table a specific type of dashboard or visualization? I'll have to make an educated guess on this one.
