As of Splunk 9.0, which index records changes to . conf files?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

This is the index that records changes to .conf files as of Splunk 9.0.According to the Splunk documentation1, the _configtracker index tracks the changes made to the configuration files on the Splunk platform, such as the files in the etc directory.The _configtracker index can help monitor and troubleshoot the configuration changes, and identify the source and time of the changes1. The other options are not indexes that record changes to .conf files.Option B, _introspection, is an index that records the performance metrics of the Splunk platform, such as CPU, memory, disk, and network usage2.Option C, _internal, is an index that records the internal logs and events of the Splunk platform, such as splunkd, metrics, and audit logs3.Option D, _audit, is an index that records the audit events of the Splunk platform, such as user authentication, authorization, and activity4. Therefore, option A is the correct answer, and options B, C, and D are incorrect.

Ha, I bet it's _introspection. Everything in Splunk is 'introspective' these days, aren't they?

Hmm, I'm leaning towards _internal. Isn't that where Splunk logs all sorts of internal events and changes?

I agree with Pearlie, because the _audit index records changes to configuration files.

Wait, isn't _configtracker the index for that? I'm pretty sure that's the one they introduced in 9.0.

I think it's _audit, that's where Splunk typically logs configuration changes, right?
