Cert Stash’s SPLK-2002 questions were easy to follow and very close to the actual exam. I passed smoothly.
Three of the 172 questions in this pack
Question 1
Which of the following clarification steps should be taken if apps are not appearing on a deployment client? (Select all that apply.)
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A, B, D. Check serverclass.conf of the deployment server; Check deploymentclient.conf of the deployment client; Search for relevant events in splunkd.log of the deployment server.
When apps are not appearing on a deployment client, you should verify the deployment server's serverclass.conf to ensure the client is targeted correctly (A), check the deployment client's deploymentclient.conf to confirm it's configured to connect to the correct server (B), and search splunkd.log on the deployment server for errors during app deployment attempts (D). While checking the apps directory on the deployment server (C) can be useful, it's not a primary troubleshooting step since the configuration issues are typically the root cause.
Why the other options are wrong
- C. Checking the apps directory contents is less critical than verifying the actual deployment configuration files and server logs.
Question 2
Which of the following security options must be explicitly configured (i.e. which options are not enabled by default)?
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. Certificate authentication between forwarders and indexers.
Certificate authentication between forwarders and indexers must be explicitly configured and is not enabled by default. Data encryption between Splunk Web and splunkd (A) is enabled by default. Certificate authentication between Splunk Web and search head (C) is enabled by default. Data encryption for distributed search between search heads and indexers (D) is enabled by default. Only certificate-based mutual authentication requires explicit configuration.
Why the other options are wrong
- A. Splunk Web to splunkd encryption is enabled by default.
- C. Splunk Web to search head certificate authentication is enabled by default.
- D. Distributed search data encryption is enabled by default.
Question 3
Which of the following artifacts are included in a Splunk diag file? (Select all that apply.)
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B, D. Internal logs; Configuration files.
A Splunk diag file includes internal logs (B) such as splunkd.log and metrics.log, and configuration files (D) from the etc directory. It explicitly excludes customer data (C) for privacy and security reasons, and does not capture live OS settings (A), though it may include some system information captured at the time of diag creation.
Why the other options are wrong
- A. OS settings are not included in a diag file.
- C. Customer data and indexed data are explicitly excluded from diag files for security and privacy.

What makes the SPLK-2002 hard
SPLK-2002 is the summit of the Splunk Enterprise track: a 90 minute, 85 question exam on designing and troubleshooting large-scale deployments. Indexer clustering, search head clustering, deployment sizing, forwarder tiers and diag analysis all feature. It assumes you have already passed the Core Certified Power User and Enterprise Certified Admin exams plus the required coursework, so there is little room to be learning the fundamentals as you go.
Splunk publishes weightings for 20 blueprint sections, each worth between 2% and 7%, so there is no single area to prioritise. Splunk does not publish a passing score. The safest approach is even coverage across deployment planning, both clustering topics, ingestion architecture, performance tuning and troubleshooting, since any of them can appear in depth.
About the exam
The Splunk Enterprise Certified Architect validates the ability to design, deploy and troubleshoot large-scale Splunk Enterprise environments: deployment planning, indexer and search head clustering, data ingestion architecture, and performance troubleshooting. It requires the Splunk Core Certified Power User and Splunk Enterprise Certified Admin certifications, plus the prerequisite architect coursework and practical lab.
