FortiGate question

We have a customer consolidating two offices into one. Both sites have operational FortiGate 40F units with active licenses. My question is, can I take the firewall from Site B and add it to Site A as a high availability unit? Figured it'd be a better use case for it than sitting on the shelf. Thanks.

As long as the hardware models match and the license for subscriptions are the same on each unit you should be ok.
