  2. Verify files 'AutoUpdate.exe', 'FSMLogAgent.exe' before uploading to the Image Server, and make sure the files have a valid signature by 'right-clicking' -> Properties -> Select Fortinet Signature -> Details -> This digital signature is OK.

  3. Upload the files to the Admin -> Settings -> System -> Image Server.
    Note: If the Windows host (Agents) reach the Collector or Supervisor through a Load Balancer or Public IPs, then, before uploading the .exe files to the Image Server, add the load balancer/public IP in Image Server -> Custom Update. Only after that, upload the files. See the  documentation link below: 
    Image Server Settings

  4. Run the Download Image to the Windows host (Agent) in the Health tab.

Troubleshooting:

 

  1. Confirm that the files have been uploaded to the Supervisor correctly. Run the following command in Supervisor:

Progress should indicate 100:

 

  1. On the Windows host, go to the folder C:\ProgramData\FortiSIEM and review the Autoupdate.log for more information about the error/failure.

     

     

  2. Change the Agent's log to Debug mode as the FortiSIEM Windows Agent Installation Guide indicated: 
    Custom Image Server Endpoint

     

 

  • Re-run the Download Image task from the SIEM GUI and review the Agent's C:\ProgramData\FortiSIEM\Agent\Logs\Trace.log.
