Usually the pre-expiration logs will be generated on the date the one-time schedule ends at 00:00.
In order to generate these logs, set the date/time in FortiGate to 06/01/2021 at 11:58:00 PM with an allowance of 2 minutes before 00:00:00.
To check pre-expiration logs generated by FortiGate, go to Log & Report -> System Events.
