Configuring FortiMail hardware settings

Before powering on your FortiMail you must add the storage disk and configure the virtual hardware of your FortiMail.

To configure settings for FortiMail on the server:
  1. In the Virtual Machine Manager, locate the name of the virtual machine and then select Open from the toolbar.
  2. Select Add Hardware. In the Add Hardware window select Storage.
  3. Browse to the storage disk file that matches your licence, for example, 250.qcow2 (250 GB storage space) and click OK.
  4. Select Network to add more network interfaces. The Device type must be Virtio.
  5. A new virtual machine includes one network adapter by default. You can add more through the Add Hardware window. FortiMail requires four or six network adapters (see Resources). You can configure network adapters to connect to a virtual switch or to network adapters on the host computer.

  6. Select Finish.
