Explanation

run doctor-log.sh is the dedicated diagnostic script for logging and indexing issues in Check Point environments - the name itself signals its purpose: a "doctor" specifically for the log subsystem, covering log server health, indexing status, and related processes.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (run cpm_doctor.sh) targets the Check Point Policy Management (CPM) process, not the logging/indexing subsystem - it diagnoses management server issues, not log server issues.
• B (cpstat mg -f log_server) provides a status snapshot of the log server via the cpstat monitoring utility, but it is not a diagnostic tool - it reports metrics rather than actively diagnosing problems.
• C (run diagnostic view) is not a valid Check Point command for this context; it conflates terminology from other tools and does not exist as a logging diagnostic.

Memory tip: Associate the script name with its job literally - doctor-log.sh = the doctor for logs. If the exam question mentions diagnosing log or index problems, the answer will contain the word "log" in the tool name, not "cpm" (policy management) or "cpstat" (status reporting).
