An admin oversees an environment with a 1000 GBI day license. The configuration file
server.conf has strict pool quota=false set. The license is divided into the following three pools, and today's usage is shown on the right-hand column:
Pool License Size Today's usage
X 500 GB/day 100 GB
Y 350 GB/day 400 GB
Z 150 GB/day 300 GB
Given this, which pool(s) are issued warnings?
In Splunk Enterprise, when you configure the server.conf file with strict pool quota=false, it means that license pools are allowed to share the total available license quota rather than being restricted to their individually allocated quotas. However, this does not prevent pools from issuing warnings if they exceed their allocated limits.
Given the environment with a 1000 GB/day license split into three pools:
Pool X: 500 GB/day license, 100 GB used
Pool Y: 350 GB/day license, 400 GB used
Pool Z: 150 GB/day license, 300 GB used
Let's analyze the usage:
Pool X is allocated 500 GB/day but has only used 100 GB, well within its limit.
Pool Y is allocated 350 GB/day but has used 400 GB, which exceeds its limit by 50 GB.
Pool Z is allocated 150 GB/day but has used 300 GB, which exceeds its limit by 150 GB.
Even with strict pool quota=false, pools Y and Z have exceeded their individual allocated quotas and will issue warnings. Pool X has not exceeded its quota and thus will not issue any warnings. Therefore, the pools that are issued warnings are Y and Z.
Windows can prevent a Splunk forwarder from reading open files. If files need to be read while they are being written to, what type of input stanza needs to be created?
The correct answer is C. MonitorNoHandle.
The other options are incorrect because:
An input stanza is a section in the inputs.conf configuration file that defines the settings for a specific type of input, such as files, directories, network ports, scripts, or Windows event logs. An input stanza starts with a square bracket, followed by the input type and the input path or name. For example, [monitor:///var/log] is an input stanza for monitoring the /var/log directory.

Which file will be matched for the following monitor stanza in inputs. conf?
The correct answer is C. /var/log/host_460352847/bar/file/foo.txt.
[monitor://<input path>]
Therefore, the file /var/log/host_460352847/bar/file/foo.txt will be matched by the monitor stanza, as it meets the criteria. The other files will not be matched, because:
A) /var/log/host_460352847/temp/bar/file/csv/foo.txt has a .csv extension, not a .txt extension.
B) /var/log/host_460352847/bar/foo.txt is not located in a subdirectory under the bar directory, but directly in the bar directory.
D) /var/log/host_460352847/temp/bar/file/foo.txt is located in a subdirectory named file under the bar directory, not directly in the bar directory.
