Splunk SPLK-2002 Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

 A Splunk job is a search process that is kicked off via a report, an alert, or a user action. A Splunk job is a child OS process manifested from the splunkd process, which is the main Splunk daemon. A Splunk job is subjected to some usage quota, such as memory, CPU, and disk space, which can be configured in the limits.conf file. A Splunk job is not a user-defined Splunk capability, as it is a core feature of the Splunk platform.

In search head clustering, there are two methods to transfer captaincy to a different member. One method is to use the Search Head Clustering settings menu from Splunk Web on any member. This method allows the user to select a specific member to become the new captain, or to let Splunk choose the best candidate. The other method is to run the splunk transfer shcluster-captain command from the member that the user wants to become the new captain. This method requires the user to know the name of the target member and to have access to the CLI of that member. Using the Monitoring Console is not a method to transfer captaincy, because the Monitoring Console does not have the option to change the captain. Running the splunk transfer shcluster-captain command from the current captain is not a method to transfer captaincy, because this command will fail with an error message

The default interval at which metrics.log generates a periodic report regarding license utilization is 60 seconds. This report contains information about the license usage and quota for each Splunk instance, as well as the license pool and stack. The report is generated every 60 seconds by default, but this interval can be changed by modifying the license_usage stanza in the metrics.conf file. The other intervals (10 seconds, 30 seconds, and 300 seconds) are not the default values, but they can be set by the administrator if needed. For more information, see About metrics.log and Configure metrics.log in the Splunk documentation.
