Topic 2: Questions Set 2
To create a tag, which of the following conditions must be met by the user?
A. Identify at least one field:value pair.
B. Have the Power role at a minimum.
C. Be able to edit the sourcetype the tag applies to.
D. Must have the tag capability associated with their user role.
Explanation: To create a tag, the user must have the tag capability associated with their user role. The tag capability allows the user to create, edit, and delete tags. The user does not need to identify a field:value pair, have the Power role, or be able to edit the sourcetype the tag applies to.References See Define and manage tags in Settings and [About capabilities] in the Splunk Documentation.
When should the regular expression mode of Field Extractor (FX) be used? (select all that apply)
A. For data cleanly separated by a space, a comma, or a pipe character.
B. For data in a CSV (comma-separated value) file
C. For data with multiple, different characters separating fields
D. For unstructured data.
Explanation: The regular expression mode of Field Extractor (FX) should be used for data with multiple, different characters separating fields or for unstructured data. The regular expression mode allows you to select a sample event and highlight the fields that you want to extract, and the field extractor generates a regular expression that matches similar events and extracts the fields from them. References See Build field extractions with the field extractor - Splunk Documentation and Field Extractor: Select Method step - Splunk Documentation.
When can a pipe follow a macro?
A. A pipe may always follow a macro.
B. The current user must own the macro.
C. The macro must be defined in the current app.
D. Only when sharing is set to global for the macro.
Explanation: A macro is a way to save a segment of a search string as a variable and reuse it in other searches2. A macro can be followed by a pipe, which is a symbol that separates commands in a search pipeline2. A pipe may always follow a macro, regardless of who owns the macro, where the macro is defined or how the macro is shared2. For example, if you have a macro called us_sales that returns events from the US region, you can use it in a search like this: us_sales | stats sum(price) by product2. This search will use the macro to filter the events and then calculate the total price for each product2. Therefore, option A is correct, while options B, C and D are incorrect because they are not conditions that affect whether a pipe can follow a macro.
Clicking a SEGMENT on a chart, ________.
A. drills down for that value
B. highlights the field value across the chart
C. adds the highlighted value to the search criteria
Which function should you use with the transaction command to set the maximum total time between the earliest and latest events returned?
A. maxpause
B. endswith
C. maxduration
D. maxspan
Explanation: The maxspan function of the transaction command allows you to set the maximum total time between the earliest and latest events returned. The maxspan function is an argument that can be used with the transaction command to specify the start and end constraints for the transactions. The maxspan function takes a time modifier as its value, such as 30s, 5m, 1h, etc. The maxspan function sets the maximum time span between the first and last events in a transaction. If the time span between the first and last events exceeds the maxspan value, the transaction will be split into multiple transactions.
When used with the timechart command, which value of the limit argument returns all values?
A. limit=*
B. limit=all
C. limit=none
D. limit=0
Explanation: The correct answer is D. limit=0. This is because the limit argument specifies the maximum number of series to display in the chart. If you set limit=0, no series filtering occurs and all values are returned. You can learn more about the limit argument and how it works with the agg argument from the Splunk documentation1. The other options are incorrect because they are not valid values for the limit argument. The limit argument expects an integer value, not a string or a wildcard. You can learn more about the syntax and usage of the timechart command from the Splunk documentation23.
