[All SPLK-2002 Questions]

In an existing Splunk environment, the new index buckets that are created each day are about half the size of the incoming data. Within each bucket, about 30% of the space is used for rawdata and about 70% for index files.
What additional information is needed to calculate the daily disk consumption, per indexer, if indexer clustering is implemented?

A. Total daily indexing volume, number of peer nodes, and number of accelerated searches.
B. Total daily indexing volume, number of peer nodes, replication factor, and search factor.
C. Total daily indexing volume, replication factor, search factor, and number of search heads.
D. Replication factor, search factor, number of accelerated searches, and total disk size across cluster.

It is B. Look at page 95-96 Architecting Splunk and it talks about considerations will include RF, SF and Daily index volume

Actually I think D is right. I will explain. In B you have: number of peer nodes, but you do not need that to calculate the disk usage as you don't care about number of peers only about the size of data and search factor + replication factor. Now it is said that you can see how much data comes in a day. Bucket = half the size so you can actually see the size of the bucket. So you do not need the size of the daily data. But if you need to calculate consumption of disk in % you would need answer from D being the size of the disk system.

You need to know the number of peers to know the average per peer. If you have an RF=3 among 5 peers, then the average is lower than it would be among 3 peers.

so why do you need number of accelerated searches?
