Splunk Core Certified Consultant — Question 20

What Splunk command will allow an administrator to view the runtime configuration instructions for a monitored file in inputs.conf on the forwarders?

Answer options

• A. ./splunk _internal call /services/data/inputs/filemonitor
• B. ./splunk show config inputs.conf
• C. ./splunk _internal rest /services/data/inputs/monitor
• D. ./splunk show config inputs

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the command './splunk show config inputs' provides the relevant configuration details for monitored files. Options A and C involve internal calls and REST commands that do not specifically show configuration in the context of inputs.conf, while option B targets a specific file instead of the overall inputs configuration.
