 = The RFL process is the Remote File Log process that is responsible for transferring logs from the Security Gateway to the Security Management Server1. If the RFL process is with status T, it means that it is terminated and not running2. This could explain why the logs are not seen in the SMS. To resolve this issue, one possible command to run is smartlog_server stop and smartlog_server restart3. This command will stop and restart the SmartLog server, which is the process that indexes and displays the logs in the SmartConsole. By restarting the SmartLog server, it may also restart the RFL process and resume the log transfer. Alternatively, one can also try to restart the RFL process directly by running cpwd_admin stop -name RFL and cpwd_admin start -name RFL. References: Check Point Processes and Daemons, sk97638 - Check Point Processes and Daemons, sk144192 - How to restart SmartLog server, [sk98348 - SmartLog / SmartView server functionality], [sk97638 - Check Point Processes and Daemons]

 The CPD process controls logging on the Security Management Server or the Log Server. It is responsible for receiving logs from the Security Gateways, storing them in the log files, and forwarding them to the SmartLog and SmartEvent servers. It also handles the communication with the SmartConsole clients and the CPM process. The CPD process runs on the Security Management Server or the Log Server as part of the Management High Availability module.
