Question 161

Assume a file is being monitored and the data was incorrectly indexed to an exclusive index. The index is cleaned and now the data must be reindexed. What other index must be cleaned to reset the input checkpoint information for that file?

A._audit
B._checkpoint
C._introspection
D._thefishbucket

Question 162

In this source definition the MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKHEAD is missing. Which value would fit best?

Event example:

A.MAX_TIMESTAMP_L0CKAHEAD = 5
B.MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD - 10
C.MAX_TIMESTAMF_LOOKHEAD = 20
D.MAX TIMESTAMP LOOKAHEAD - 30

Question 163

When should the Data Preview feature be used?

A.When extracting fields for ingested data.
B.When previewing the data before searching.
C.When reviewing data on the source host.
D.When validating the parsing of data.

Correct Answer: D

The Data Preview feature should be used when validating the parsing of data. The Data Preview feature allows you to preview how Splunk software will index your data before you commit the data to an index. You can use the Data Preview feature to check the following aspects of data parsing1:
Timestamp recognition: You can verify that Splunk software correctly identifies the timestamps of your events and assigns them to the _time field.
Event breaking: You can verify that Splunk software correctly breaks your data stream into individual events based on the line breaker and should linemerge settings.
Source type assignment: You can verify that Splunk software correctly assigns a source type to your data based on the props.conf file settings. You can also manually override the source type if needed.
Field extraction: You can verify that Splunk software correctly extracts fields from your events based on the transforms.conf file settings. You can also use the Interactive Field Extractor (IFX) to create custom field extractions.
The Data Preview feature is available in Splunk Web under Settings > Data inputs > Data preview. You can access the Data Preview feature when you add a new input or edit an existing input1.
The other options are incorrect because:
A) When extracting fields for ingested data. The Data Preview feature can be used to verify the field extraction for data that has not been ingested yet, but not for data that has already been indexed. To extract fields from ingested data, you can use the IFX or the rex command in the Search app2.
B) When previewing the data before searching. The Data Preview feature does not allow you to search the data, but only to view how it will be indexed. To preview the data before searching, you can use the Search app and specify a time range or a sample ratio.
C) When reviewing data on the source host. The Data Preview feature does not access the data on the source host, but only the data that has been uploaded or monitored by Splunk software. To review data on the source host, you can use the Splunk Universal Forwarder or the Splunk Add-on for Unix and Linux.
