Which of the following is true for indexer cluster knowledge bundles?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

According to the Splunk documentation1, indexer cluster knowledge bundles are the configuration files that the cluster master distributes to the peer nodes as part of the cluster configuration bundle. The knowledge bundles contain the knowledge objects, such as event types, tags, lookups, and so on, that are relevant for indexing and searching the data. The cluster master creates the knowledge bundles by merging the app-name/default and app-name/local directories from the apps that reside on the master node.The cluster master then pushes the knowledge bundles to the peer nodes, where they reside under the $SPLUNK_HOME/var/run directory2. The other options are false because:

Only app-name/local is pushed. This is false because the cluster master pushes both the app-name/default and app-name/local directories, after merging them, to the peer nodes.The app-name/local directory contains the local customizations of the app configuration, while the app-name/default directory contains the default app configuration3.

Only app-name/default is pushed. This is false because the cluster master pushes both the app-name/default and app-name/local directories, after merging them, to the peer nodes.The app-name/default directory contains the default app configuration, while the app-name/local directory contains the local customizations of the app configuration3.

app-name/default and app-name/local are pushed without change. This is false because the cluster master merges the app-name/default and app-name/local directories before pushing them to the peer nodes.This ensures that the peer nodes have the latest and consistent configuration of the apps3.

I think the answer is B) app-name/default and app-name/local are merged before pushing.

C has got to be the right answer. Why would we push both bundles separately? That's just wasteful.

Hmm, I'm torn between B and D. Maybe I'll just flip a coin and hope for the best!

I'm gonna go with B. Merging the default and local bundles makes sense before pushing them.

D seems like the correct answer to me. Why would we only push one of the bundles when we have both available?
