Which of the following describes a Splunk deployment server?



A. A Splunk Forwarder that deploys data to multiple indexers.


B. A Splunk app installed on a Splunk Enterprise server


C. A Splunk Enterprise server that distributes apps.


D. A server that automates the deployment of Splunk Enterprise to remote servers.





C.
  A Splunk Enterprise server that distributes apps.

Explanation:
A Splunk deployment server is a system that distributes apps, configurations, and other assets to groups of Splunk Enterprise instances. You can use it to distribute updates to most types of Splunk Enterprise components: forwarders, nonclustered indexers, and search heads2.
A Splunk deployment server is available on every full Splunk Enterprise instance. To use it, you must activate it by placing at least one app into %SPLUNK_HOME%\etc\deployment-apps on the host you want to act as deployment server3.
A Splunk deployment server maintains the list of server classes and uses those server classes to determine what content to distribute to each client. A server class is a group of deployment clients that share one or more defined characteristics1.
A Splunk deployment client is a Splunk instance remotely configured by a deployment server. Deployment clients can be universal forwarders, heavy forwarders, indexers, or search heads. Each deployment client belongs to one or more server classes1.
A Splunk deployment app is a set of content (including configuration files) maintained on the deployment server and deployed as a unit to clients of a server class. A deployment app can be an existing Splunk Enterprise app or one developed solely to group some content for deployment purposes1.
Therefore, option C is correct, and the other options are incorrect.

What is the default value ofLINE_BREAKER?



A. \r\n

Line breaking, which uses the LINE_BREAKER setting to split the incoming stream of data into separate lines. By default, the LINE_BREAKER value is any sequence of newlines and carriage returns. In regular expression format, this is represented as the following string: ([\r\n]+). You don't normally need to adjust this setting, but in cases where it's necessary, you must configure it in the props.conf configuration file on the forwarder that sends the data to Splunk Cloud Platform or a Splunk Enterprise indexer. The LINE_BREAKER setting expects a value in regular expression format.

A Splunk Enterprise commercial end-user license is a license that you purchase from Splunk based on either data volume or infrastructure.
