Assign VDOMs to different ADOMs

Hi,

 

I'm fairly new to Fortimanager so please excuse this question if it's somewhat basic.

 

I have a Fortigate firewall that has been configured with two VDOMs; root and test.  In Fortimanager, I'd like to control the root VDOM in one ADOM and control the test VDOM in different ADOM.  However, when I add the Fortigate under Device Manager, it puts both VDOMs in the same ADOM.  

 

How do I assign each VDOM separately?

 

Thanks for your time,

Larry

    hi,

     

    here is the procedure :

    - import your firewall in a ADOM

    - On "all ADOMs" page, edit an empty ADOM

    - Select the VDOM you want to add to this ADOM

    - do this for all the VDOM you want to move

     

    A+

    Hi

     

    Change ADOM mode to "Advanced" :

     

     

    config system global set adom-mode advanced end

     

    A+

    Thank you.  I have set my FM to Advanced mode and restarted it on spec.

     

    Now, when I try to re-add my FG Device from my previous post, I fail to see how I split up the VDOMs into separate ADOMs.  

     

    Any further guidance on this aspect?

    Thank you Lucas. 

     

    It's not very intuitive, but I now have it working exactly as you directed.
