Question

FortiWeb IOS, version 5.5.x

I have a FortiWeb 1000D with a firmware version 5.41, build0560.

I would like to upgrade to the latest version which I belieive is 5.5.x

 

Now I was reading that I need to re-partition the hard disk first before upgrading to the latest version.

 

Has anyone upgrade from version 5.4 to 5.5. yet?

If you have, how easy/hard was the partition part?

 

Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi,

     

    It's easy. Just follow the release notes... The 're-partition' firmware will do nothing more than that. It will reboot with the same config that you have.

     

    After upgrade to 5.5 is a good practice did a "rebuild db" for the logs works well.

    Hello, I have the same situation and cannot determine whether I can upload the 'repartition image' via the webgui 'upgrade' link or that I have to connect via CLI console port and then upload that image through tftp?

    If it is that simple by uploading via webgui, do I have to upload the final image (5.5.4 in our case) after that repartition image has been uploaded earlier?

    And then it is HA, but since we work on a 5.4.x FortiOS ,this should be as easy as upload to the primary, as you used to do with a Fortigate HA cluster?

     

    Thank you and regards,
