HI all,

 

I have not yet had the pleasure of working with phCheckpoint 

Is it needed on a 7.1.3 Collector talking to a 7.1.3 SIEM? are there any cases it can be ignored?

 

How can I get it going? and why does it not start?  which logs will yield the answer to these questions?

 

Please advise

 

Thank in advance, Karl

Hi @KarlH ,

If there is any error related to phCheckPoint or high utilization then the process would be down.

Check resource utilization and ensure no errors in installation. Temporary disable checkpoint from Admin > Setup > Pull Events or any logs. 

 

If its a new deployment with no logs, consider re-deploying the instance. 

 

I would suggest to open a ticket with Fortinet Support and provide logs for analysis.
