Which file will be matched for the following monitor stanza in inputs. conf?
[monitor: ///var/log/*/bar/*. txt]



A. /var/log/host_460352847/temp/bar/file/csv/foo.txt


B. /var/log/host_460352847/bar/foo.txt


C. /var/log/host_460352847/bar/file/foo.txt


D. /var/ log/ host_460352847/temp/bar/file/foo.txt





C.
  /var/log/host_460352847/bar/file/foo.txt

Explanation:
The correct answer is C. /var/log/host_460352847/bar/file/foo.txt.
The monitor stanza in inputs.conf is used to configure Splunk to monitor files and directories for new data.The monitor stanza has the following syntax1:
[monitor://]
The input path can be a file or a directory, and it can include wildcards (*) and regular expressions. The wildcards match any number of characters, including none, while the regular expressions match patterns of characters.The input path is case-sensitive and must be enclosed in double quotes if it contains spaces1.
In this case, the input path is /var/log//bar/.txt, which means Splunk will monitor any file with the .txt extension that is located in a subdirectory named bar under the /var/log directory. The subdirectory bar can be at any level under the /var/log directory, and the * wildcard will match any characters before or after the bar and .txt parts1.
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.

An index stores its data in buckets. Which default directories does Splunk use to store buckets? (Choose all that apply.)



A. bucketdb


B. frozendb


C. colddb


D. db





C.
  colddb

D.
  db

Which artifact is required in the request header when creating an HTTP event?



A. ackID


B. Token


C. Manifest


D. Host name





B.
  Token

When creating an HTTP event, the request header must include a token that identifies the HTTP Event Collector (HEC) endpoint. The token is a 32-character hexadecimal string that is generated when the HEC endpoint is created. The token is used to authenticate the request and route the event data to the correct index. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
