Upgrade FortiClient EMS

FortiOS 6.0.15 supports FortiClient EMS 6.0.8 and later.

To ensure a successful upgrade, it's recommended that you perform the upgrade on a staging server before upgrading the production server.

1. Connect FortiClient endpoints to the staging server.
2. Connect to the staging server. A notification appears about the new firmware. Review and accept the upgrade. You can also download the installer for the new firmware by going to the Fortinet Support website and manually running the installer.

   For information about the FortiClient EMS upgrade path, see the Fortinet Documentation Library.

3. After the installation, go to Dashboard > FortiClient Status. Confirm that the System Information widget displays the correct firmware.
4. Monitor the staging server for two days. If there are no issues, upgrade the production server to the new firmware and reconnect FortiClient endpoints to the production server.

For more information, see the FortiClient EMS Release Notes and FortiClient EMS Administration Guides.
