A Universal Forwarder is collecting two separate sources of data (A,B). Source A is being routed through a Heavy Forwarder and then to an indexer. Source B is being routed directly to the indexer. Both sets of data require the masking of raw text strings before being written to disk. What does the administrator need to do t/1 /2nsure that the masking takes place successfully?

Place both props . conf and transforms . conf on the Heavy Forwarder for source A, and place both props . conf and transforms . conf on the indexer for source B.

Make sure that props . conf and transforms . conf are both present on the in-dexer and the search head.

For source A, make sure that props . conf is in place on the indexer; and for source B, make sure transforms . conf is present on the Heavy Forwarder.

Make sure that props . conf and transforms . conf are both present on the Universal Forwarder.

No, because the event time is greater than the retention time.

Yes, only if the bucket is still hot.

No, because the index will have exceeded its maximum size.

Yes, only if the index size is also below 650000 MB.
