The Field Extractor (FX) is used to extract a custom field. A report can be created using this custom field. The created report can then be shared with other people in the organization. If another person in the organization runs the shared report and no results are returned, why might this be? (select all that apply)
A. Fast mode is enabled.
B. The dashboard is private.
C. The extraction is private-
D. The person in the organization running the report does not have access to the index.
Explanation: The Field Extractor (FX) is a tool that helps you extract fields from your events using a graphical interface2. You can create a report using a custom field extracted by the FX and share it with other users in your organization2. However, if another user runs the shared report and no results are returned, there could be two possible reasons. One reason is that the extraction is private, which means that only you can see and use the extracted field2. To make the extraction available to other users, you need to make it global or app-level2. Therefore, option C is correct. Another reason is that the other user does not have access to the index where the events are stored2. To fix this issue, you need to grant the appropriate permissions to the other user for the index2. Therefore, option D is correct. Options A and B are incorrect because they are not related to the field extraction or the report.
Consider the following search:
index=web sourcetype=access_combined
The log shows several events that share the same JSESSIONID value
(SD470K92802F117). View the events as a group.
From the following list, which search groups events by JSESSIONID?
A. index=web sourcetype=access_combined | highlight JSESSIONID | search SD470K92802F117
B. index=web sourcetype=access_combined | transaction JSESSIONID | search SD470K92802F117
C. index=web sourcetype=access_combined SD470K92802F117 | table JSESSIONID
D. index=web sourcetype=access_combined JSESSIONID
Explanation: To group events by JSESSIONID, the correct search is index=web sourcetype=access_combined | transaction JSESSIONID | search SD470K92802F117 (Option B). The transaction command groups events that share the same JSESSIONID value, allowing for the analysis of all events associated with a specific session as a singletransaction. The subsequent search for SD470K92802F117 filters these grouped transactions to include only those related to the specified session ID.
Which of the following statements describes macros?
A. A macro is a reusable search string that must contain the full search.
B. A macro is a reusable search string that must have a fixed time range.
C. A macro Is a reusable search string that may have a flexible time range.
D. A macro Is a reusable search string that must contain only a portion of the search.
A macro is a reusable search string that can contain any part of a search, such as search terms, commands, arguments, etc. A macro can have a flexible time range that can be specified when the macro is executed. A macro can also have arguments that can be passed to the macro when it is executed. A macro can be created by using the Settings menu or by editing the macros.conf file. A macro does not have to contain the full search, but only the part that needs to be reused. A macro does not have to have a fixed time range, but can use a relative or absolute time range modifier. A macro does not have to contain only a portion of the search, but can contain multiple parts of the search.
Which of the following data model are included In the Splunk Common Information Model (CIM) add-on? (select all that apply)
A. Alerts
B. Email
C. Database
D. User permissions
The Splunk Common Information Model (CIM) add-on is a collection of pre-built data models and knowledge objects that help you normalize your data from different sources and make it easier to analyze and report on it3. The CIM add-on includes several data models that cover various domains such as Alerts, Email, Database, Network Traffic, Web and more3. Therefore, options A, B and C are correct because they are names of some of the data models included in the CIM add-on. Option D is incorrect because User permissions is not a name of a data model in the CIM add-on.
This function of the stats command allows you to return the middle-most value of field X.
A. Fields(X)
B. Median(X)
C. Eval by X
D. Values(X)
Which of the following is a function of the Splunk Common Information Model (CIM)?
A. Normalizing data across a Splunk deployment.
B. Providing templates for reports and dashboards.
C. Algorithmically shifting events to other indexes.
D. Reingesting previously indexed data with new field names.
