This process will involve both FortiNAC-F appliances being down for some time. If possible, this should be done during a maintenance window.
- Establish SSH sessions for both primary and secondary appliances and verify the status using the following commands:
cat /bsc/campusMgr/bin/.networkConfig
When the secondary unit is in control, both servers should show Status=2.
- Shutdown processes on the primary FortiNAC appliance. Enter the following CLI commands:
execute enter-shell
shutdownNAC -kill
- Shutdown processes on the secondary appliance. Enter the following CLI commands:
execute enter-shell
shutdownNAC
shutdownNAC -kill
- Change the status from 2 to 1 on both primary and secondary appliances. Enter the following CLI commands:
vi -N /bsc/campusMgr/bin/.networkConfig
Next, change Status=2 to Status=1.
Save the changes and exit the file.
- (optional) Restore Database backup from the last database backup. On the primary server:
cd /bsc/backups/database
sudo ydb_restore_full_backup <filename>
Note:
In later versions of FortiNAC, the path for the database backup has changed to '/storage/bsc/backups/database'. Use this path when changing the directory in the previous command.
-
Start processes on the primary FortiNAC appliance. On the primary appliance:
startupNAC
Allow approximately 10 minutes for the system to start.
- Once the primary server has fully started, start services on the secondary appliance:
startupNAC
