Which Splunk component consolidates the individual results and prepares reports in a distributed environment?
In a distributed Splunk environment, the component responsible for consolidating individual results and preparing reports is the search head. The search head distributes search queries to various search peers (indexers), collects the results, and then consolidates and presents them to the user. This allows for efficient search management and reporting across a distributed architecture.
It is the Search Head role https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.3.1/DistSearch/Howuserscancontroldistributedsearches
Agreed C. Quoting the reference URL "From the user standpoint, specifying and running a distributed search is essentially the same as running any other search. Behind the scenes, the search head distributes the query to its search peers, and consolidates the results when presenting them to the user."
