The Fortimanager release notes will have a compatibility matrix, verify there to your exact release.

    Thanx for your replay. I am not sure still what will happen when I have different FG Versions.
    In the last I upgraded the FM from 6.2 to 6.4.
    Afther I make a Update on a FortiGate from 6.2 to 6.4, so I couldn't push policys to the FG Devices, that had the 6.2 Version still over the Fortimanager.
    I think, when I upgrade the FM to 7.0.1 and import a Fortigate with 7.0.2 to the manager, so I could not push any policiys to Fortigates with the older Version 6.4.8.

    We've been running FMG 6.4.x and now 6.4.7 managing combination of FGTs with 6.2.x and 6.0.10 at one 6.0 ADOM. I just finished upgrading all those FGTs (160 of them) to 6.2.9, so now about to update ADOM version to 6.2. I didn't have any problem to push several versions of Policy Packages to 6.0.10 FGTs.

      Thanx for your Replay again. 
      Is there any different between FortiManager and FortiManagerCloud?
      We use FMG-Cloud

      I don't have the answer. We use only FMG-VM.
