Check Point Certified Automation Specialist (CCAS) — Question 26

If the cpsemd process of SmartEvent has crashed or is having trouble coming up, then it usually indicates that __________.

Answer options

• A. The SmartEvent core on the Solr indexer has been deleted
• B. The logged in administrator does not have permissions to run SmartEvent
• C. Postgres database is down
• D. Cpd daemon is unable to connect to the log server

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because if the Postgres database is not operational, it can prevent the cpsemd process from accessing necessary data, leading to crashes or startup issues. The other options, while potentially problematic, do not directly relate to the immediate functionality of the cpsemd process itself.
