Question 1
A SOC analyst at a manufacturing firm is investigating a performance degradation issue with their FortiAnalyzer 7.4. They suspect that a specific custom report, which runs hourly, is consuming excessive system resources. The report uses a complex custom dataset that queries logs from the past 24 hours across all 500 of their managed FortiGates. Which diagnostic command would provide the most direct insight into the resource consumption specifically related to report generation?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C
The diagnose test application reportd 2 command is specifically designed to show the status of running reports, including their progress, duration, and the SQL queries being executed. This provides the most direct information to identify a long-running or resource-intensive report. diagnose sql status shows the status of the SQL database but isn't specific to the reporting daemon. diagnose fortilogd lograte shows log ingestion rates, and get system performance status provides general system metrics, not specific daemon performance.
