Question 13

You update a props.conf file while Splunk is running. You do not restart Splunk and you run this command: splunk btool props list `"-debug. What will the output be?

    Correct Answer: C

    The btool command in Splunk is used to troubleshoot configuration files by simulating the merging process of the on-disk configuration files, and it generates a report showing the merged settings. The --debug flag is used to display the exact file path from which the configuration is located. Therefore, running the splunk btool props list --debug command will result in a list of props.conf configurations as they are on-disk along with the file paths from which the configurations are located.
