Full set: 88 questions
Answer options
A: orchd restart Correct answer
B: reboot
C: service orchestrator restart
D: cpstop; cpstart
Correct Answer:
A. orchd restart
Explanation

The Maestro Orchestrator runs as a specific daemon process called orchd. To restart only this service without affecting other Check Point processes or the underlying operating system, the dedicated command orchd restart should be used. This command specifically targets the orchestrator process, allowing for a graceful restart of its functions. This is the most precise and correct method for managing the orchestrator service from the command line.

Why Incorrect

B. The reboot command restarts the entire appliance, which is a much more disruptive action than just restarting a single service.
C. The service orchestrator restart command uses a generic Linux service management syntax that is not the specific command used in Check Point's Gaia OS for the Maestro orchd process.
D. cpstop; cpstart is a command sequence that stops and starts all Check Point software blade services, not just the orchestrator service.
