Which statement applies to Log Collector Groups?

The correct answer is D. The maximum number of Log Collectors in a Log Collector Group is 18 plus two hot spares. Answer D is correct: a single Log Collector Group supports a maximum of 16 active Log Collectors plus two dedicated hot-spare Log Collectors (described in some Palo Alto documentation as 16+2, occasionally referenced as 18 total slots), making D the accurate statement about…

Question

Which statement applies to Log Collector Groups?

Options

  • ALog redundancy is available only if each Log Collector has the same amount of total disk storage.
  • BEnabling redundancy increases the log processing traffic in a Collector Group by 50%.
  • CIn any single Collector Group, all the Log Collectors must run on the same Panorama model.
  • DThe maximum number of Log Collectors in a Log Collector Group is 18 plus two hot spares.

Explanation

Answer D is correct: a single Log Collector Group supports a maximum of 16 active Log Collectors plus two dedicated hot-spare Log Collectors (described in some Palo Alto documentation as 16+2, occasionally referenced as 18 total slots), making D the accurate statement about maximum group capacity. Answer A is false - log redundancy does not require identical disk sizes across collectors; Panorama distributes logs proportionally based on available capacity. Answer B is false - enabling log redundancy doubles log processing traffic (100% increase), not 50%, because each log entry is written to two collectors. Answer C is false - Log Collectors within a single Collector Group can run on different Panorama-compatible hardware models (e.g., mixing M-600 and M-200 appliances is supported).
