After upgrading from 5.6.5 to 6.0.2 I'm getting the message File System Check Recommended. Clicking on "Reboot and scan disk now", reboots the fortigate but it never finish the reboot completely. It froze with the power led light only on and stay there. The only way to complete the reboot is to disconnect the power. After that the unit boots again but gave me the same message again "File System Check Recommended". What can I do?

    I would re-format the boot drive and upload the FortiOS image via TFTP, then restore the config with a backup config file.

    If i were you, and if this system is Production I would stay in latest 5.6 and would not migrate eitherway to 6.x because its realy new for production and as i saw in the release notes that the configuration changes and some features (configuration) can be altered.

    So if i were you i would "execute factory reset" and

    roll back to my baseline

    then

    upgrade to latest 5.6

    Thanks.  I think this is the way I would go. I know that I have to make a configuration backup but, what happens when I execute this command exactly? Will I would lose connection to the forti gui?  I'm accessing the GUI thru his ip address. Apart from getting the file system check at login the system is working ok.
