    Upgrade information

    Caution FortiOS 6.2.9 increased the FortiGate-7121F boot partition size. If you are running FortiOS 6.2.7 or earlier firmware on your FortiGate-7121F, you must upgrade to FortiOS 6.2.9 using the information in the FortiGate-7000 6.2.9 Release Notes before upgrading to 6.2.12. The FortiGate-7121F is not supported by FortiOS 6.0.

    Use the graceful upgrade information or other firmware upgrade information in these release notes to upgrade your FortiGate-6000 or 7000 system to the latest firmware version with only minimal traffic disruption and to maintain your configuration.

    You can also refer to the Upgrade Path Tool (https://docs.fortinet.com/upgrade-tool) in the Fortinet documentation library to find supported upgrade paths for all FortiGate models and firmware versions.

    A similar upgrade path tool is also available from Fortinet Support: https://support.fortinet.com.

    In some cases, these upgrade path tools may recommend slightly different upgrade paths. If that occurs, the paths provided by both tools are supported and you can use either one.

    See also, Upgrade information in the FortiOS 6.2.12 release notes.
