Splunk Enterprise Certified Architect — Question 87

What does the deployer do in a Search Head Cluster (SHC)? (Select all that apply.)

Answer options

• A. Distributes apps to SHC members.
• B. Bootstraps a clean Splunk install for a SHC.
• C. Distributes non-search related and manual configuration file changes.
• D. Distributes runtime knowledge object changes made by users across the SHC.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The deployer's primary function in a Search Head Cluster is to distribute apps to the SHC members, which is why option A is correct. The other options do not pertain to the deployer's responsibilities; for instance, bootstrapping a clean install and distributing configuration changes are tasks not handled by the deployer.
