CPM stands for Check Point Management, which is a process that runs on the Security Management server and controls the management operations, such as policy installation, object creation, configuration backup, etc. CPM also controls other processes that are related to the management functions, such as:
web_services: This process is responsible for providing web services for the communication between SmartConsole and the Security Management server. It handles requests from SmartConsole clients and forwards them to CPM or other processes.
dle_server: This process is responsible for managing the log files and indexes. It handles queries from SmartLog and SmartEvent and provides log data to CPM or other processes.
object_Store: This process is responsible for storing and retrieving objects from the database. It handles requests from CPM or other processes and provides object data.
Therefore, the correct answer is D.
The other options are incorrect because:
A. Object-Store, Database changes, CPM Process and web-services: This option includes some processes that are controlled by CPM, such as Object-Store, CPM Process, and web-services, but it also includes Database changes, which is not a process but an action performed by CPM or other processes.
B. web-services, CPMI process, DLEserver, CPM process: This option includes some processes that are controlled by CPM, such as web-services, DLEserver, and CPM process, but it also includes CPMI process, which is not a process but a protocol used by CPM or other processes to communicate with each other.
C. DLEServer, Object-Store, CP Process and database changes: This option includes some processes that are controlled by CPM, such as DLEServer and Object-Store, but it also includes CP Process and database changes, which are not processes but a generic term for any Check Point process and an action performed by CPM or other processes respectively.
