Format Procedure

[suryachintu]

Hi,

Could you suggest me on Format procedure of FortiManager 400B?

Currently no nodes on this box. Basically I wanna format it and upload latest firmware image and then add nodes.

Regards

Surya

Hi,

You can use CLI command "execute format disk" to format a data disk or "execute reset all-settings" to bring it to factory default state. You can use normal upgrade process before formatting / resetting to have latest firmware installed.

Hi, Thanks for the information..which is helpful. However , You says "You can use normal upgrade process before formatting / resetting to have latest firmware installed"

Our FortiManager 400B is currently running with v4.0-build0408 110811 (MR2 Patch 7), could you suggest latest version and upgrade path please?

Regards

Surya

this document says : FortiManager version 5.2.2 supports upgrade from version 5.2.0 and 5.2.1.

I'm looking for upgrade path from V4 MR2 Patch 7 to 5.2.2 ... I can't find this information on any document.

It is in document I previously posted. Beginning from page 8 you have whole upgrade table to and from any version with compatible devices.

It may be silly question but I want to make sure everything before I go ahead and do upgrade, What does "FortiOS Version Support " means .. does it mean Nodes (Fortigates) FortiOS version?
