Splunk Core Certified Advanced Power User — Question 110

All search-time field extractions should be specified on which Splunk component?

Answer options

• A. Deployment server
• B. Universal forwarder
• C. Indexer
• D. Search head

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as search-time field extractions are specifically configured on the search head to enable users to extract fields dynamically during searches. The other options, such as the Deployment server, Universal forwarder, and Indexer, do not handle search-time field extractions directly; they focus on data distribution and indexing.
