Forticluster activion

[AUT_Maverick]

Hello everyone!

I have tried a Fortigate 501E to an Active Passive Cluster. But after I configured the high availability settings the firewall crashed and paralysed the connection in the company. There are already some VDOMs and some policies configured on the firewall. How can I prevent the firewall from crashing again at the next attempt?

This an urgent Question.

Hi

What do you mean by crashed?

Did you try ping it or access to via https/ssh?

Was it a split brain?

Which FOS version on both nodes?

Hi @AUT_Maverick,

You can connect to FortiGate console to collect error messages during the crash. https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-How-to-connect-to-the-FortiGate-console-po...

You can also run this command 'di deb crashlog read' to see if there was a crash.

Hi @AUT_Maverick,

Do you mean the FortiGate enter conserve mode or not responding at all?
