   What does a 'Search Factor Violation' in the Monitoring Console indicate about the cluster?

   • AThe number of searchable copies of some buckets is below the configured search factor
   • BA peer has failed and its buckets are no longer searchable
   • CThe replication factor is set too high for the number of peers in the cluster
   • DSearch requests are failing because of a lack of search heads

   An administrator is investigating a report that searches are returning incomplete results. The Monitoring Console shows that all peers are up, replication factor is satisfied, but search factor violations are present. What is the most likely cause?

   • ASome buckets have only one searchable copy, and that peer is temporarily unavailable for search.
   • BThe cluster master is not distributing search jobs correctly.
   • CThe search heads are not configured to use the cluster.
   • DThe replication factor is set too low, causing data loss.

   A cluster administrator notices in the Monitoring Console that the 'Replication Lag' metric is consistently high for a specific peer. Users are reporting that search results are incomplete. What is the most likely impact of this high replication lag?

   • AThe search factor is violated, so the peer cannot participate in searches.
   • BThe peer is down and cannot serve any search requests.
   • CThe peer has not yet received the latest buckets, so searches that hit that peer may miss recent data.
   • DThe peer is overloaded and rejecting all search requests.

   An administrator is using the Monitoring Console to monitor a cluster with 5 peers. The dashboard shows that one peer is down. What is the immediate impact on the cluster's ability to serve search requests?

   • ASearches may return incomplete results if the down peer held the only searchable copy of some buckets.
   • BSearches will fail entirely because the cluster cannot operate with a peer down.
   • CSearches will continue to work normally because the cluster has enough peers to cover the loss.
   • DSearches will be slower because the cluster must replicate data to other peers.
