Description
This article describes how to fix WAD process memory leak by restarting the process every few hours.
Solution
Use the following command for a FortiGate without VDOMs:
#config system auto-script
edit restart_wad
set interval 43200
set repeat 356
set start auto
set script 'diag test app wad 99'
next
end
Use the following command in case FortiGate has VDOMs:
#config system auto-script
edit restart_wad
set interval 43200
set repeat 356
set start auto
set script '
config global
diag test app wad 99'
next
end
This specific script will run every 12 hours and for 356 times. Change the settings to required need or remove the script once the permanent solution is available.
