Ken can use either of the two commands lock database override or unlock database to obtain a configuration lock from another administrator on R81 Security Management Server via CLI. These commands allow him to override the existing lock and gain exclusive access to the database. He can also use the WebUI to perform the same action.

The port that the CPM process runs on is TCP 19009. CPM stands for Check Point Management, and it is the main process that runs on the Security Management Server and interacts with SmartConsole clients. CPM is responsible for managing policies, objects, logs, tasks, and other management functions. CPM listens on TCP port 19009 for incoming connections from SmartConsole clients. The other ports are either used by other processes or not related to CPM. 

 One of the requirements for Joey’s success in upgrading from R75.40 to R81 version of Security management using Advanced Upgrade with Database Migration method is that the size of the /var/log folder of the target machine must be at least 25% of the size of the /var/log directory on the source machine. Advanced Upgrade with Database Migration method is a procedure that allows administrators to upgrade their Security Management Server to a newer version by migrating their database from an older version to a new machine with a fresh installation of the newer version. One of the steps in this procedure is to copy the /var/log folder from the source machine to the target machine, which contains important log files and configuration files. To ensure that there is enough disk space on the target machine for this operation, it is required that the size of the /var/log folder on the target machine must be at least 25% of the size of the /var/log folder on the source machine. 

The process that handles connection from SmartConsole R81 is cpm. Cpm stands for Check Point Management, and it is the main process that runs on the Security Management Server and interacts with SmartConsole clients. Cpm is responsible for managing policies, objects, logs, tasks, and other management functions. The other processes are either obsolete or irrelevant for SmartConsole connection.
