Limitations

Citrix XenServer limitations

The following limitations apply to Citrix XenServer installations:

• XenTools installation is not supported.

• FortiGate-VM can be imported or deployed in only the following three formats:

  • XVA (recommended)

  • VHD

  • OVF

• The XVA format comes pre-configured with default configurations for VM name, virtual CPU, memory, and virtual NIC. Other formats will require manual configuration before the first power on process.

Open source XenServer limitations

When using Linux Ubuntu version 11.10, XenServer version 4.1.0, and libvir version 0.9.2, importing issues may arise when using the QCOW2 format and existing HDA issues.

Limitations on HA cluster formation between different FortiGate Rugged 60F and 60F 3G4G models

FortiGate Rugged 60F and 60F 3G4G models have various generations defined as follows:

• Gen1

• Gen2 = Gen1 + TPM

• Gen3 = Gen2 + Dual DC-input

• Gen4 = Gen3 + GPS antenna

• Gen5 = Gen4 + memory

The following HA clusters can be formed:

• Gen1 and Gen2 can form an HA cluster.

• Gen4 and Gen5 can form an HA cluster.

• Gen1 and Gen2 cannot form an HA cluster with Gen3, Gen4, or Gen5 due to differences in the config system vin-alarm command.
