A customer has worked with their LDAP administrator to configure an LDAP strategy in Splunk. The configuration works, and user Mia can log into Splunk using her LDAP Account. After some time, the Splunk Cloud administrator needs to move Mia from the user role to the power role. How should they accomplish this?
A. Ask the LDAP administrator to move Mia's account to an appropriately mapped LDAP group.
B. Have Mia log into Splunk, then update her own role in user settings.
C. Create a role named Power in Splunk, then map Mia's account to that role.
D. Use the Cloud Monitoring Console app as an administrator to map Mia's account to the power role.
Explanation: In Splunk Cloud, role-based access controls are managed by mapping LDAP groups to Splunk roles. Therefore, any change in roles should be managed by the LDAP administrator, who can adjust Mia’s group to an LDAP group mapped to the power role.
What Splunk command will allow an administrator to view the runtime configuration instructions for a monitored file in Inputs. cont on the forwarders?
A. ./splunk _internal call /services/data/input.3/filemonitor
B. ./splunk show config inputs.conf
C. ./splunk _internal rest /services/data/inputs/monitor
D. ./splunk show config inputs
Explanation: To view the runtime configuration instructions for a monitored file in
inputs.conf on the forwarder, the correct command to use involves accessing the internal REST API that provides details on data inputs.
C. ./splunk _internal rest /services/data/inputs/monitor is the correct answer. This
command uses Splunk's internal REST endpoint to retrieve information about
monitored files, including their runtime configurations as defined in inputs.conf.
Which of the following is true when integrating LDAP authentication?
A. Splunk stores LDAP end user names and passwords on search heads.
B. The mapping of LDAP groups to Splunk roles happens automatically.
C. Splunk Cloud only supports Active Directory LDAP servers.
D. New user data is cached the first time a user logs in.
Explanation: When integrating LDAP authentication with Splunk, new user data is cached the first time a user logs in. This means that Splunk does not store LDAP usernames and passwords; instead, it relies on the LDAP server for authentication. The mapping of LDAP groups to Splunk roles must be configured manually; it does not happen automatically. Additionally, Splunk Cloud supports various LDAP servers, not just Active Directory.
Which of the following is not a path used by Splunk to execute scripts?
A. SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/bin
B. SPLUNK HOME/etc/appa/
C. SPLUNKHOMS/ctc/scripts/local
D. SPLUNK_HOME/bin/scripts
Explanation: Splunk executes scripts from specific directories that are structured within its
installation paths. These directories typically include:
SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/bin: This directory is used to store scripts that are
part of the core Splunk system configuration.
SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/
SPLUNK_HOME/bin/scripts: This is a standard directory for storing scripts that
may be globally accessible within Splunk's environment.
However, C. SPLUNKHOMS/ctc/scripts/local is not a recognized or standard path used
by Splunk for executing scripts. This path does not adhere to the typical directory structure
within the SPLUNK_HOME environment, making it the correct answer as it does not
correspond to a valid script execution path in Splunk.
In which file can the SH0ULD_LINEMERCE setting be modified?
A. transforms.conf
B. inputs.conf
C. props.conf
D. outputs.conf
Explanation: The SHOULD_LINEMERGE setting is used in Splunk to control whether or not multiple lines of an event should be combined into a single event. This setting is configured in the props.conf file, where Splunk handles data parsing and field extraction. Setting SHOULD_LINEMERGE = true merges lines together based on specific rules.
