HA cluster logging

Hi, David,

If FGT running on 5.2, then you should be able to see 1 HA entry in FAZ unregistered device, FAZ get info from FGT request and will auto group them into 1 entry (in unregistered list, not after added/promoted into device manager)

If FGT is on 5.0, then FGT not yet support send that info to FAZ, so you will see 2 standalone device in FAZ unreg list and you need to add/promote them separately, then after add, in device manager, edit 1 of them, enable cluster to add the other device.

If you want to keep the old logs when they are in standalone mode in new HA cluster, we have a document for how to do that in 5.2.1 and if you need that, please let me know

Thanks

Simon

Thanks Simon. The FGT are not on 5.x yet, so I see the HA Master and the HA Slave in the FAZ even after I enable HA and add the serial numbers to the device properties in the FAZ. I have a project to get the FGT up to 5.x, so hopefully that will resolve this as well. I would like to be able to keep the old logs, could you provide a link to the document you referenced?

Thanks Again,

David

If your FGT (master and slave) already in device manager and then upgrade FGT to 5.2, FAZ will not auto update device manager (to combine 2 devices into 1 HA device), and you still need to manually do that

on FAZ 5.2.1, you need to do below steps

   -- on FAZ 5.2.2, we will support to auto do below steps after you enable HA cluster, I will update later for 5.2.2 behavior

Thanks

Simon

When a FortiGate device is edited to enable HA Cluster and include two or more FortiGates, the log data of previous standalone FortiGates are not automatically migrated to the HA Cluster. Administrator has to manually move the log data from the HA member FortiGates to the HA Cluster. In this sample, at first, FGT1 and FGT2 are standalone FortiGates. Administrator edits FGT1 and enable HA Cluster, adding FGT2 to this HA Cluster. Detailed Steps: To move the log data of FGT1 and FGT2 into HA Cluster, the steps are as follows: 1. FGT Cluster members are already registered in DVM as standalone devices. They already have log files.

From GUI->DVM, edit FG100D0000000001, enable HA cluster and include FG100D0000000002. After this, there is only one active device in DVM, and FGT2 becomes a zombie device: #diag log device Device Name          Device ID        Used Space(logs/database/qua/content/IPS) Allocated Space  % Used FG100D-HA       FGHA001382585443_CID        0MB(0   / 0   / 0   / 0   / 0   )           20000MB   0.00%         |- HA clsuter member: FG100D0000000001         |- HA clsuter member: FG100D0000000002 Total: 1 log devices, used=0MB, quota=20000MB FG100D0000000002     FG100D0000000002---> zombie device <--- 3.
