Remove device from the current smart console
We have checkpoint 1570 appliance and currently licenses expired on it. Currently it manage on smart console install in another server. When licenses renewal we need this gateway remove from current smart console and manage standalone firewall. How can I do this without configuration lost and is it okay to install licenses in to current smart console and then remove from smart console?

SmartConsole only connects to a Smart-1 Management appliance.
It does not connect to a Quantum Spark directly nor can it be used to manage a locally managed Spark appliance, which can be managed through its WebUI.
When you separate from your Smart-1 Management appliance (switch the device to locally managed), you will lose the configuration.
As I stated previously, there is no way to convert the configuration between the two.

The configuration provided by Smart-1 Management and local Quantum Spark management is different.
Unfortunately, there isn't a way to convert between the two.
Central licenses (pushed through SmartConsole) won't apply when the device is locally managed.

Thank you for your reply. For remove device from current smart console should I change this to central to local management or staying central management can I remove this device from the smart console? If I can stay central management after remove the device from the smart console, can I Install another computer (not a server) to smart console from firewall gateway and get same configurations?

Just to make sure we understand this right...You are saying its centrally managed at the moment, but you would like it removed from mgmt server and then managed on its own, but you are worried licences may get deleted?
Or did I miss the point completelly?

My first question is not about licenses. I want to know configurations currently have in the SmartConsole of the server can be deleted or not during the device separation process from SmartConsole. I will address the license issue in a separate question.
