Question

Change "group_tag" in FortiClient (EMS)

We use FortiClient EMS with FortiClients - Installer ID's.

 

Now we create newer installers and now, we will change the "Installer ID" (group_tag in registry) on some devices.

But we have no permissions to change this;

Same like here:

FortiClient EMS Cloud - Changing Group Tag Installer ID? : r/fortinet (reddit.com)

 

the "solution" is not working.. 

 

a "reinstallation" is not the way to go.

 

Have someone a idea?

 

Thank for your Help!

For security reasons, in later versions of FCT, the value of "installer ID" is set during installation and it can not be changed anymore.
