Description | This article describes the false positive case of 'Memory configuration check' while doing a 'diag hardware test system'. |
Scope | FortiGate. |
Solution |
When running a hardware test on the firewall, the system fails the Memory Configuration Check despite other checks passing successfully.
Sample Test Output (Failing Case):
SYSTEM
In v7.2.8 and lower, and v7.4.1 and lower, the Memory Configuration Check may fail due to an issue with the memory threshold configuration. This is a known issue and can be safely ignored.
diagnose hardware test system memory-config 11:39:17 ( 18s) ==> Memory Configuration Check 11:39:17 ( 18s) <== Memory Configuration Check - [[ X FAIL X ]]
Example Diagnostic Command Output (Fixed Version):
diagnose hardware test system memory-config 02:05:54 ( 0s) ==> Memory Configuration Check 02:05:54 ( 0s) <== Memory Configuration Check - [[ PASS ]] |
