Problem
1) A firewall is logging locally. If a firewall is logging locally, then... A) No new logs are coming into the SmartCenter or CLM according to the SmartViewTracker or fw log command B) The $FWDIR/log/fw.log file is increasing in size on the firewall in question
2) There is not TCP log connection between the firewall fwd process and the log server / SmartCenter / CLM.
You should normally see an ESTABLISHED connection when running the following command on a firewall that is configured to log remotely.
[Expert@chkpfw]# netstat -an | grep ":257" | grep -v -E "LISTEN|127.0.0.1" tcp 0 0 172.16.0.254:48956 192.168.1.100:257 ESTABLISHED
Solution
command line fwd restart
stop/start commands
# cpwd_admin stop -name FWD -path "$FWDIR/bin/fw" -command "fw kill fwd"
# cpwd_admin start -name FWD -path "$FWDIR/bin/fw" -command "fwd"
