Description

This article describes how to move Devices/VDOMs between FortiManager ADOMs.

Scope

FortiManager 7.x.

Solution

Select 'All ADOMs' under System Settings.
Create or Edit the ADOM to which the FortiGate/VDOM is to be moved.
Select '+ Select Device' button to select the device.

Select 'OK'.
Go to the ADOM where the device is moved to and import the policy for the objects and policies to be available in this ADOM.
To move FortiGate VDOM from one ADOM to another - the 'ADOM mode' feature must be set to 'Advanced'.

Note:

In case FortiGate uses VPN Manager in the old ADOM and now wants to move the FortiGate to another ADOM, the VPN database would not move to the new ADOM and hence cannot manage the tunnel in the New ADOM. The new VPN Communities must be created and Installed to make it work in the new ADOM.
