Topic 2: Questions Set 2
When multiple event types with different color values are assigned to the same event, what determines the color displayed for the events?
A. Rank
B. Weight
C. Priority
D. Precedence
What does the following search do?
A. Creates a table of the total count of users and split by corndogs.
B. Creates a table of the total count of mysterymeat corndogs split by user.
C. Creates a table with the count of all types of corndogs eaten split by user.
D. Creates a table that groups the total number of users by vegetarian corndogs.
Explanation: The search string below creates a table of the total count of mysterymeat
corndogs split by user.
| stats count by user | where corndog=mysterymeat
The search string does the following:
It uses the stats command to calculate the count of events for each value of the
user field. The stats command creates a table with two columns: user and count.
It uses the where command to filter the results by the value of the corndog field.
The where command only keeps the rows where corndog equals mysterymeat.
Therefore, the search string creates a table of the total count of mysterymeat corndogs split
by user.
Which of the following statements describe data model acceleration? (select all that apply)
A. Root events cannot be accelerated.
B. Accelerated data models cannot be edited.
C. Private data models cannot be accelerated.
D. You must have administrative permissions or the accelerate_dacamodel capability to accelerate a data model.
Explanation: Data model acceleration is a feature that speeds up searches on data models by creating and storing summaries of the data model datasets1. To enable data model acceleration, you must have administrative permissions or the accelerate_datamodel capability1. Therefore, option D is correct. Accelerated data models cannot be edited unless you disable the acceleration first1. Therefore, option B is correct. Private data models cannot be accelerated because they are not visible to other users1. Therefore, option C is correct. Root events can be accelerated as long as they are not based on a search string1. Therefore, option A is incorrect.
Which group of users would most likely use pivots?
A. Users
B. Architects
C. Administrators
D. Knowledge Managers
A pivot is a tool that allows you to create reports and dashboards using data models without writing any SPL commands2. You can use pivots to explore, filter, split and visualize your data using a graphical interface2. Pivots are designed for users who want to analyze and report on their data without having to learn the SPL syntax or the underlying structure of the data2. Therefore, option A is correct, while options B, C and D are incorrect because they are not the typical group of users who would use pivots.
After manually editing; a regular expression (regex), which of the following statements is true?
A. Changes made manually can be reverted in the Field Extractor (FX) UI.
B. It is no longer possible to edit the field extraction in the Field Extractor (FX) UI.
C. It is not possible to manually edit a regular expression (regex) that was created using the Field Extractor (FX) UI.
D. The Field Extractor (FX) UI keeps its own version of the field extraction in addition to the one that was manually edited.
Explanation: After manually editing a regular expression (regex) that was created using the Field Extractor (FX) UI, it is no longer possible to edit the field extraction in the FX UI. The FX UI is a tool that helps you extract fields from your data using delimiters or regular expressions. The FX UI can generate a regex for you based on your selection of sample values or you can enter your own regex in the FX UI. However, if you edit the regex manually in the props.conf file, the FX UI will not be able to recognize the changes and will not let you edit the field extraction in the FX UI anymore. You will have to use the props.conf file to make any further changes to the field extraction. Changes made manually cannot be reverted in the FX UI, as the FX UI does not keep track of the changes made in the props.conf file. It is possible to manually edit a regex that was created using the FX UI, as long as you do it in the props.conf file.
What functionality does the Splunk Common Information Model (CIM) rely on to normalize fields with different names?
A. Macros.
B. Field aliases.
C. The rename command.
D. CIM does not work with different names for the same field.
Explanation: The Splunk Common Information Model (CIM) add-on helps you normalize your data from different sources and make it easier to analyze and report on it3. One of the functionalities that the CIM add-on relies on to normalize fields with different names is field aliases3. Field aliases allow you to assign an alternative name to an existing field without changing the original field name or value2. By using field aliases, you can map different field names from different sources or sourcetypes to a common field name that conforms to the CIM standard3. Therefore, option B is correct, while options A, C and D are incorrect.
