I have had to upgrade both my firewalls and Panorama from 4.1.9 to 4.1.10 about a week ago. I updated the firewalls and subsequently cleared the logs for them, however, I failed to do that with the Panorama. Yesterday, I realized this important missed step and subsequently went to export the current logs. The transfer finished this morning and I then began to clear the traffic and threat logs from the Panorama.
Now that you have the story, my question is this:
How long does it take for the Panorama to start backfilling the traffic and threat logs from the active firewalls? It was my understanding that the active firewalls would begin to send the historical log data to the Panorama. But what time does this activity start? I know there is no exact time of when this is supposed to happen but is there a rough guess-timate?

Log export to Panorama is a real-time process. So Panorama can only have the logs pushed by the firewall as they are generated.There is no way backfilling would happed.
