What information does the doctor-log script supply?
Full set: 109 questionsThe doctor-log script is a built-in Check Point utility designed to diagnose the health and performance of a Log Server or Security Management Server's logging function. Its primary output provides critical statistics for troubleshooting, including the current and daily average log rates, the status of the log indexing process (essential for SmartLog), and information about log file sizes and disk space consumption. This data helps administrators quickly identify bottlenecks, indexing problems, or disk space issues affecting log management.
A. The script is a diagnostic tool that identifies problems; it does not provide "Repair options" as part of its output.
C. While it shows logging rates, the script's output is diagnostic data, not a generic "List of troubleshooting tips."
D. The script does not offer "Repair options"; its purpose is to report the status and performance metrics for diagnosis.
1. Check Point R81.10 Security Management Administration Guide: In the "Logging and Monitoring" chapter, under the "Troubleshooting" section, the guide discusses tools for diagnosing log server issues. The doctor-log script is highlighted as a key utility for checking "log rates, indexing, and disk space," which directly corresponds to the elements in the correct answer. (Reference: Chapter on Logging and Monitoring, section on CLI tools for troubleshooting).
2. Check Point Support Center, SK Article sk113255 - "How to use the 'doctor-log' script": This official knowledge base article details the script's functionality. The article explicitly states that the script checks and displays information on "Log rates (current and daily average)", "Disk space", and "Indexing status". This source directly validates that the components listed in option B are the core information supplied by the script.
