SPLK-1003 Exam - Question 50


Which of the following indexes come pre-configured with Splunk Enterprise? (Choose all that apply.)

Show Answer
Correct Answer: BD

Splunk Enterprise comes pre-configured with several indexes to help manage its functions and logs. _internal is used for Splunk Enterprise's internal logs and processing metrics. _thefishbucket stores metadata about the files Splunk is monitoring, such as seek pointers and CRCs, which helps Splunk determine if a file has already been read. These indexes are part of the default setup and do not need manual configuration.

Splunk Enterprise comes with a number of preconfigured indexes, including: main: This is the default Splunk Enterprise index. All processed data is stored here unless otherwise specified. _internal: Stores Splunk Enterprise internal logs and processing metrics. _audit: Contains events related to the file system change monitor, auditing, and all user search history. Since the only choice available is "_internal" the answer is B. Ref: https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.3.1/Indexer/Howindexingworks

B, D are the correct answer. After installing Splunk 8.2 on my local machine I checked the default indexes.conf, and there is the fishbucket index configured.

Agreed B and D. Quoting the Splunk Reference URL https://www.splunk.com/en_us/blog/tips-and-tricks/what-is-this-fishbucket-thing.html "t’s time for a little Indexing 101. If you look in the directory where your Splunk datastore resides (default location /opt/splunk/var/lib/splunk) you will find a directory called fishbucket. This index is not really intended for normal humans to investigate, more just Splunk engineers trying to decipher file input issues. It contains seek pointers and CRCs for the files you are indexing, so splunkd can tell if it has read them already. To see what’s there, try searching for “index=_thefishbucket”. Events look something like this:"

I believe the only answer is B. The other preconfigured indexes are: main: The default Splunk Enterprise index. All processed external data is stored here unless otherwise specified. _internal: This index includes Splunk Enterprise internal logs. _metrics: This index contains Splunk Enterprise internal data, stored in the form of metric data points. _audit: Events from the file system change monitor, auditing, and all user search history. _introspection: This index provides data about the Splunk Enterprise instance and environment . https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.2.2/Indexer/Aboutmanagingindexes
