Exam SPLK-2002 Topic 7 Question 80 Discussion

Actual exam question for Splunk's SPLK-2002 exam
Question #: 80
Topic #: 7
A customer currently has many deployment clients being managed by a single, dedicated deployment server.
The customer plans to double the number of clients.
What could be done to minimize performance issues?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

According to the Splunk documentation1, increasing the current deployment client phone home interval can minimize performance issues by reducing the frequency of communication between the clients and the deployment server. This can also reduce the network traffic and the load on the deployment server. The other options are false because:
* Modifying deploymentclient.conf to change from a Pull to Push mechanism is not possible, as Splunk does not support a Push mechanism for deployment server2.
* Reducing the number of apps in the Manager Node repository will not affect the performance of the deployment server, as the apps are only downloaded when there is a change in the configuration or a new app is added3.
* Decreasing the current deployment client phone home interval will increase the performance issues, as it will increase the frequency of communication between the clients and the deployment server, resulting in more network traffic and load on the deployment server1.
