Splunk provides various methods to change the internal logging levels in a Splunk environment to troubleshoot an issue. All of the options are valid ways to do so. Option A is correct because the Monitoring Console (MC) allows the administrator to view and modify the logging levels of various Splunk components through a graphical interface. Option B is correct because the Splunk command line provides the splunk set log-level command to change the logging levels of specific components or categories. Option C is correct because the Splunk Web provides the Settings > Server settings > Server logging page to change the logging levels of various components through a web interface. Option D is correct because the log-local.cfg file allows the administrator to manually edit the logging levels of various components by overriding the default settings in the log.cfg file123

The correct topology to ensure a scalable and performant deployment for the customer’s use case is two search head clusters, one for ITSI and one for ES. This configuration provides high availability, load balancing, and isolation for each Splunk app. According to the Splunk documentation1, ITSI and ES should not be installed on the same search head or search head cluster, as they have different requirements and may interfere with each other. Having two separate search head clusters allows each app to have its own dedicated resources and configuration, and avoids potential conflicts and performance issues1. The other options are not recommended, as they either have only one search head or search head cluster, which reduces the availability and scalability of the deployment, or they have both ITSI and ES installed on the same search head or search head cluster, which violates the best practices and may cause problems. Therefore, option B is the correct answer, and options A, C, and D are incorrect.

As a best practice, the internal licensing logs should be stored on the license server. The license server is a Splunk instance that manages the distribution and enforcement of licenses in a Splunk deployment. The license server generates internal licensing logs that contain information about the license usage, violations, warnings, and pools. The internal licensing logs should be stored on the license server itself, because they are relevant to the license server’s role and function. Storing the internal licensing logs on the license server also simplifies the license monitoring and troubleshooting process. The internal licensing logs should not be stored on the indexing layer, the deployment layer, or the search head layer, because they are not related to the roles and functions of these layers. Storing the internal licensing logs on these layers would also increase the network traffic and disk space consumption
