In a Collector Group with multiple Log Collectors, enabling redundancy ensures that:

The correct answer is B. Each log has two copies, each residing on a different Log Collector. When redundancy is enabled in a Panorama Collector Group, each log entry is written to two different Log Collectors within the group. This ensures that if one Log Collector fails or becomes unavailable, the second copy of every log is still accessible on another collector…

Question

In a Collector Group with multiple Log Collectors, enabling redundancy ensures that:

Options

  • AEach log is stored only on the primary Log Collector.
  • BEach log has two copies, each residing on a different Log Collector.
  • CLogs are distributed based on a round-robin mechanism.
  • DLogs are stored in a compressed format to save space.

Explanation

When redundancy is enabled in a Panorama Collector Group, each log entry is written to two different Log Collectors within the group. This ensures that if one Log Collector fails or becomes unavailable, the second copy of every log is still accessible on another collector - providing fault tolerance and high availability for log data. This is not a round-robin distribution (which would store each log on only one collector) nor compression; it is explicit data duplication across two distinct physical or virtual Log Collector appliances.
