Got it fixed.
i logged into Forticloud>Asset Management and decommissioned it from there.
I then went back into the FortiGate VM and requested the licence from the CMD line:
execute vm-license-options account-id xxxx@fortinet.com
execute vm-license-options account-password xxxxxxx
execute vm-license
Hello @Tobymeh ,
You just need to log in with the FortiCloud account on new deployed Fortigate.
FortiCloud moves the license automatically. You can use just one eval license with an account. Because of that, when you enter the FortiCloud account into a new unit, the old unit is deactivated.
Or you can create one more FortiCloud account and you can activate a new unit with this account.
