Azure Fortimanager

Hello,

 

I have deployed Fortimanager in Azure Infrastructure. As I see it automatically applied 1TB disk. 

What is the purpose of this disk? Just for logs? 

 

Because right now my Fortimanager has 2 disk:

1 - OS disk - Size is 4gb

2 - Data disk - Size iz 1TB

It is to maintain the database of devices managed by the fortimanager . Its configs, policy packages etc. if you have enabled Fortianalyzer functionality, then logs as well.

FortiManager-VM requires a minimum disk size of 500GB. By default, a log disk of 1 TB is automatically allocated to a FortiManager-VM instance.

Understood, Thanks.

and If I need to enable logging functionality then I can just map new disk, correct?
