my 1500D silently freeze

Hi 

 

i m using a cluster of 1500D running 5.2.11

and from time to time one member silently crash

there s nothing on the console , nothing in the log.

the only way to get it back to life is to pull off power cord.

 

when it reboot i got a mesage that i need to make a fsck but nothing else.

 

The only log i got is from the partner in the cluster who said that his companion is not there anymore.

the fortigate support is really of no use 

 

how can i investigate on this problem?

I don't remember well because it was long time ago when we were running our 1500D clusters with 5.2.x and experienced similar issue. It happens only to slave/passive units and we dealt with Fortinet TAC quite some time and they eventually put a patch on the OS.

I recommend you open a case with Fortinet TAC. It's probably specific to your HA setting.

Thanks for your answer

 

I will do that

Be patient until get it escalated up to Level 2 or 3. The solution might be only available on 5.4.x or 5.6.x though.

It looks like there was an issue with the 1500D in FOS v5.2 with a crashing daemon process. Customer support had a patch but the issue resurfaced in v5.4, 5.4.1, 5.6 and 5.6.1 according to this thread: https://forum.fortinet.com/tm.aspx?m=118706

Hello,

 

You may look at CSB-170130-1 (FortiGate 1500D SSD Sleep mode)

we re running 5.2.11

Hello,

 

If you don't see anything in the comlog (check it is enabled), if you run 5.2.11, and as it looks like this unit is the slave then you may have a hardware issue

I have the same problem with fortigate 1000D,

 

any idea how to solve it

Just out of curiosity, what OS are you running your 1500D now?

 

We still have one cluster on 5.2.9 and the rest is on 5.4.5.
