I am in process of downgrading a firmware of 124E however encountering following error when trying to do so:
""Downgrade Warning
Some incompatible administrator accounts were found with FortiSwitchOS versions<7.0.0.
if desired, convert incompatible accounts using the "execute system admin account-convert <admin>" command
Unconverted accounts will not be able to log in with FortiSwitchOS versions < 7.0.0.""
I executed the the command multiple times then it prompts for New Password then I am unable to type anything in CLI.
Current BIOS Version: 04000008
Firmware Version: v7.2.5.build0453.230707 (GA)
Trying to downgrade to: FSW_124E-v7-build0444-FORTINET.out
Haha, I think I figured it out! So my Fortilink NTP was set to -8 Pacific, this is a firewall that's in Tel Aviv, just changed to +2 and I can now update the firmware https://speedtest.vet/ .
I changed it to +2 GMT jerusalem, still doesnt work.
