After completing a rolling upgrade of an indexer cluster, an administrator wants to verify that the upgrade was successful. Which command or dashboard should they use to confirm the cluster is healthy and all buckets are searchable?

Check the 'Indexer Clustering' dashboard in Splunk Web on any peer.

Run 'splunk search 'index=_internal' | stats count by host' on a search head.

Run 'splunk list bucket-status' on any peer.

Run 'splunk show cluster-status' on the cluster master.

Before upgrading an indexer cluster, which of the following must be verified to ensure compatibility?

The new Splunk Enterprise version is supported with the current operating system and hardware

The cluster is using the default ports for all communication

The search head version is the same as the indexer cluster version

All indexer nodes have the same disk space available

After migrating an indexer cluster to new hardware, an administrator wants to confirm that search functionality is working correctly across all peers. What is the most effective way to validate this?

Run the 'splunk search' command on the cluster master.

Check the 'splunk show cluster-status' command on the cluster master.

Verify that all peers are listed in the 'Indexer Clustering' dashboard.

Run a search against a known index and verify that results are returned from all peers.

Which of the following describes the downtime upgrade procedure for an indexer cluster?

Upgrading the cluster master while the peers remain online

Upgrading only the peers and leaving the cluster master on the old version

Upgrading each peer node individually while the cluster continues to serve searches

Stopping the entire cluster, upgrading all nodes, and then restarting the cluster

Which of the following is a prerequisite for upgrading an indexer cluster?

All indexer nodes must be upgraded to the same version simultaneously

The cluster must be in a healthy state with all peers connected

All search heads must be upgraded before the indexer cluster

The cluster master must be upgraded last
