Updating the ADOM version

FortiManager Cloud supports one ADOM and version. With FortiManager Cloud 7.0.x, the ADOM can be any of the following versions: 6.2, 6.4 and 7.0.

You can view the ADOM version on the System Settings > Dashboard pane in the System Information widget.

Before you can upgrade an ADOM to a higher version, you must upgrade firmware for all managed FortiGates to a version that is supported on the new ADOM.

You can only upgrade one ADOM version at a time. For example, if you are using a 6.2 ADOM and want to upgrade to a 7.0 ADOM, you must upgrade from 6.2 to 6.4, and then you can upgrade from 6.4 to 7.0.

To upgrade the ADOM version:

1. Access FortiManager Cloud. See Accessing the portal and instances.

2. In FortiManager Cloud, ensure that all managed FortiGates are running a FortiOS version that is supported by the new ADOM version. For more information on firmware versions supported in each ADOM, see the FortiManager Administration Guide.

3. Go to System Settings > Dashboard. The Dashboard is displayed.

   

4. In the System Information widget, click Configure beside Administrative Domain option.

   The Edit ADOM dialog box is displayed.

5. In the Type field select a version, such as 7.0.

6. Click OK, and the ADOM is upgraded to the selected version.

To downgrade the ADOM version:

1. Access FortiManager Cloud. See Accessing the portal and instances.

2. Open the FortiManager CLI from the toolbar, and enter the following command:
   

   execute reset adom 3 <version> <major release number>

   For example, to change the ADOM to version 6.4, you can enter the following command:

   execute reset adom 3 6 4

   All devices (including unauthorized devices) must be deleted from the ADOM prior to performing the ADOM reset.

3. Log in to the user portal again following reboot, and the ADOM is downgraded to the selected version.
   You can see the current ADOM versions at System Settings > Dashboard.
