Answer: A, C

Explanation:

The deployer distributes apps and non-search related and manual configuration file changes to the search head cluster members. The deployer does not bootstrap a clean Splunk install for a search head cluster, as this is done by the captain. The deployer also does not distribute runtime knowledge object changes made by users across the search head cluster, as this is done by the replication factor. For more information, see Use the deployer to distribute apps and configuration updates in the Splunk documentation.
