Where are apps deployed from the Deployment Server found on the client by default?

  1. SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps

  2. SPLUNK_HOME/deployment-apps

  3. var/lib/splunk/apps

  4. etc/system/local

The correct answer is: SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps

Apps that are deployed from the Deployment Server are typically located by default in the "SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps" directory on the client. This is the standard location where Splunk searches for apps when it starts up. When the Deployment Server pushes an app to a client, it installs the app into this standard apps directory so that the Splunk instance can readily access and manage the configurations and functionalities associated with the app. This placement allows for seamless integration and operation within the Splunk environment. The other locations mentioned do not serve as default installation points for apps deployed from the Deployment Server. For instance, "SPLUNK_HOME/deployment-apps" is where the Deployment Server stores apps before they are sent out, while "var/lib/splunk/apps" is not a standard directory for storing deployed apps and "etc/system/local" is used for local configurations rather than app deployments.
