 = 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 Global Domain is one of the relational database domains in the Postgres database that stores the management configuration. The purpose of the Global Domain is to serve as the global database for Multi-Domain Security Management (MDSM) and contain the global objects and policies that are shared across all domains. The Global Domain also stores the global settings, such as the administrator roles, the LDAP servers, the IPS profiles, and the SmartEvent views. The Global Domain can be managed by the Global Domain Administrator or the Super User Administrator using the SmartConsole. The Global Domain can be backed up and restored using the mds_backup and mds_restore commands.
