A customer is having issues with truncated events greater than 64K. What configuration should be deployed to a universal forwarder (UF) to fix the issue?
To address issues with truncated events greater than 64K in a universal forwarder (UF), you should configure the EVENT_BREAKER_ENABLE and EVENT_BREAKER regular expression settings per sourcetype. These settings control how the UF recognizes and handles event boundaries, which can prevent events from being improperly truncated. The other options either point to default configurations or best practices that do not directly address the truncation problem in the context of a UF.

I think C
I'm between C and D but I think C is a better option
for sure B! C is not wrong but it is part of B and B should be done in any case as best practice. ref: https://www.sicherevielfalt.de/blog/the-ultimate-splunk-magic-8-for-a-dramatic-performance-boost/
The question is about a universal forwarder (UF). You can only set EVENT_BREAKER_ENABLE and EVENT_BREAKER on a UF. MAGIC 8 wont' work there, so C should be the answer.
Magic 6 or the Great 8 is a best practice for sure, but on the Universal Forwarder you can only set EVENT_BREAKER_ENABLE and EVENT_BREAKER. (Ref: Core Implementation Notes p. 169-171)
