The raw events of the search results

A visualization of the search results

A Splunk admin has a dashboard panel that shows the number of errors per hour. The admin wants the panel to update automatically every 5 minutes, but the underlying search is resource-intensive. The admin is concerned about performance impact. What is the best approach?

Increase the dashboard's refresh interval to 1 hour.

Save the search as a report, schedule it to run every 5 minutes, and use the report as the panel's data source.

Set the dashboard panel to 'Auto Refresh' every 5 minutes.

Use a real-time search in the panel.

A Splunk admin has a saved report that runs a search over a large time range. The report is scheduled to run every hour, but it often takes longer than the scheduled interval to complete, causing overlapping runs. The admin wants to prevent overlapping runs while still getting the results. What should the admin do?

Change the search to use a smaller time range.

Enable 'Skip if search is already running' in the report settings.

Set the schedule to 'Run on Cron Schedule' with a longer interval.

Enable 'Schedule Priority' to 'High'.

A Splunk user has run a search and wants to keep a static copy of the results for an audit that will be reviewed next month. The user does not need to rerun the search. What is the most appropriate action?

Export the results to a CSV file and store it externally.

Add the search to a dashboard panel.

Take a screenshot of the results page.
