Alberto,
I don't know what the fw.core file is, but my guess
would be that the fw modules blew a gasket and
cored-out.
If you don't need the old 'remote' logs for histerical
reasons, then they can be deleted.
As for checking to see if they're logging locally or
remotely(local to your fwmgr), just open the log
viewer. Look for entries that show the 'Origin' as
your remote firewall.
If you don't find any, then either there's no traffic
on the remote firewall, it's down or it's logging on
the local machine. Just look at the date and time
of the remote fw log, it should show the date and
time that you changed the logging to your single
mgt station.
