In which scenario would license warnings appear?

If total data indexed stays within limits
When no changes are made to licensing before midnight
On weekends only
After a successful license upgrade

The correct answer is: When no changes are made to licensing before midnight

License warnings in Splunk Enterprise are designed to alert administrators when licensing issues arise, particularly in relation to data indexing limits. If no changes are made to the licensing before midnight, it indicates that the organization might be exceeding its licensed data volume. Splunk checks the indexed data amount against the licensing constraints at midnight each day. Therefore, if the indexed data exceeds the limit and the license conditions are not updated or adjusted, warnings will appear to alert administrators to comply with licensing agreements. Other scenarios, such as staying within total data indexed limits or receiving warnings only on weekends, do not accurately reflect the conditions under which license warnings would be triggered. Similarly, a successful license upgrade typically results in an adjustment of licensed data limits and would not lead to warnings as long as the new limits are adhered to.
