Question 94

Which of the following statements describes how distributed search works?

    Correct Answer: C

    In distributed search within the context of Splunk, the search head is responsible for dispatching search requests to the search peers, which are often indexers. The search peers then execute the search query and return the resulting data back to the search head, which consolidates the results and presents them to the user. This process allows for effective distribution and handling of large search volumes across multiple servers.

Agreed C. Quoting the Splunk reference URL https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.2.2/DistSearch/Configuredistributedsearch "To activate distributed search, you add search peers, or indexers, to a Splunk Enterprise instance that you desingate as a search head. You do this by specifying each search peer manually."
