Splunk Core Certified Power User — Question 4

By default, how is acceleration configured in the Splunk Common Information Model (CIM) add-on?

Answer options

• A. Turned off.
• B. Turned on.
• C. Determined automatically based on the sourcetype.
• D. Determined automatically based on the data source.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as acceleration is turned off by default in the Splunk CIM add-on to prevent unnecessary resource usage. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they suggest that acceleration is either enabled or automatically configured, which does not reflect the default behavior.
