Primary FortiGate-7000F recovery

If a primary FortiGate-7000F recovers after a device, FIM, link, or FPM failure, it will operate as the secondary FortiGate-7000F. If override is enabled; however, when the FortiGate-7000F recovers, the cluster will renegotiate and the FortiGate-7000F with the highest device priority becomes the primary FortiGate-7000F.
