Splunk Enterprise Security Certified Admin — Question 84

An administrator is provisioning one search head prior to installing ES.
What are the reference minimum requirements for OS, CPU, and RAM for that machine?

Answer options

• A. OS: 32 bit, RAM: 16 MB, CPU: 12 cores
• B. OS: 64 bit, RAM: 32 MB, CPU: 12 cores
• C. OS: 64 bit, RAM: 12 MB, CPU: 16 cores
• D. OS: 64 bit, RAM: 32 MB, CPU: 16 cores

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because it specifies the minimum required specifications for the search head, including a 64-bit OS, 12 MB of RAM, and 16 CPU cores. Options A and B do not meet the RAM requirements, and option D exceeds the minimum RAM requirement but has the same CPU cores as C, making C the most accurate choice for the minimum specifications.
