Splunk SPLK-3003 Exam - Topic 6 Question 60 Discussion

A customer has asked for a five-node search head cluster (SHC), but does not have the storage budget to use a replication factor greater than 2. They would like to understand what might happen in terms of the users' ability to view historic scheduled search results if they log onto a search head which doesn't contain one of the 2 copies of a given search artifact.Which of the following statements best describes what would happen in this scenario?
A) The search head that the user has logged onto will proxy the required artifact over to itself from a search head that currently holds a copy. A copy will also be replicated from that search head permanently, so it is available for future use.
B) Because the dispatch folder containing the search results is not present on the search head, the user will not be able to view the search results.
C) The user will not be able to see the results of the search until one of the search heads is restarted, forcing synchronization of all dispatched artifacts across all search heads.
D) The user will not be able to see the results of the search until the Splunk administrator issues the apply shcluster-bundle command on the search head deployer, forcing synchronization of all dispatched artifacts across all search heads.

Just to clarify, the replication factor really limits access here.

D seems plausible too, but B makes more sense to me.

Wait, are you sure? I thought they could proxy artifacts.

I think option B is correct. No dispatch folder, no results.

I vaguely recall something about the apply shcluster-bundle command being important for synchronization. Option D could be the right answer, but I need to think it through more.

I thought that the results would only sync after a restart, but I'm not sure if that's the case here. Option C seems plausible, but I need to double-check.

I'm a bit unsure, but I think the search head might be able to proxy the artifact. I feel like I saw a question like this where it mentioned proxying.

I remember that in a search head cluster, if a search head doesn't have the artifact, it usually can't display the results. So, I think option B makes sense.

Ah, this is a tricky one. I'm not entirely sure which two options would be the best to define the baseline. Maybe I'll go with "show system cpu" and "show system memory" to get a comprehensive view of the resource utilization.

Okay, I've got it! The answer has to be C - Load and Performance Testing Service. That's the service designed specifically for testing the performance of web applications like the one my friend is building.

I feel a bit uncertain about the specific numbers, but I think I might have seen something similar in my review. I just need to apply the right formulas!
