You mean the cfexecd proc?

I supervise the cfengine daemons and monitor their output via syslog:

 $ sudo svstat /service/cf*
 Password:
 /service/cfenvd: up (pid 17360) 18391878 seconds
 /service/cfexecd: up (pid 15232) 18396425 seconds
 /service/cfservd: up (pid 859) 334233 seconds
 $ cat /service/cfexecd/log/run 
 #!/bin/sh
 exec /usr/bin/logger -p daemon.notice

Of course I have cfengine setup itself up to be supervised.
