What information does the doctor-log script supply?

Question

Options

• ALogging errors. Exceptions, Repair options
• BCurrent and daily average logging rates. Indexing status, Size
• CLogging rates. Logging Directories, List of troubleshooting tips
• DRepair options. Logging Rates, Logging Directories

• B
  91% (29)
• C
  6% (2)
• D
  3% (1)

Explanation

Option B is correct because the doctor-log script is a diagnostic tool designed to give administrators a health snapshot of the logging system - specifically, it reports current and daily average logging rates, indexing status, and storage size. These metrics help quickly assess whether logging is functioning normally.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A is incorrect - logging errors, exceptions, and repair options describe troubleshooting or remediation tools, not a diagnostic read-out script.
• C is incorrect - while logging rates are included, listing logging directories and troubleshooting tips are not what doctor-log provides; that conflates it with documentation or directory tools.
• D is incorrect - repair options are out of scope for doctor-log; it observes and reports, it does not fix.

Memory tip: Think of doctor-log like a doctor's checkup - a doctor measures your vitals (rates), checks your chart history (daily averages), notes any test backlogs (indexing status), and checks your weight (size). Doctors diagnose; they don't repair on the spot - so eliminate any choice mentioning "repair options."
