FortiManager verifies if FortiAnalyzer features are disabled before forming HA cluster

With FortiManager 7.0.0, you cannot enable FortiAnalyzer features on FortiManager nodes that are part of an HA cluster.

If FortiAnalyzer features are enabled on FortiManager nodes in an HA cluster before you upgrade to FortiManager 7.0.0, FortiAnalyzer features are automatically disabled on each FortiManager in the HA cluster during upgrade.

After upgrading to FortiManager 7.0.0, you cannot enable FortiAnalyzer features on any FortiManager nodes that are part of an HA cluster, and the FortiAnalyzer Features option is hidden in the GUI.

For standalone FortiManager units with FortiAnalyzer features enabled, you must disable FortiAnalyzer features before you can form a FortiManager HA cluster after upgrading to FortiManager 7.0.0.

This topic contains the following sections:

• FortiAnalyzer features disabled during upgrade
• FortiAnalyzer features disabled when HA enabled
• FortiAnalyzer features disabled before forming HA

FortiAnalyzer features disabled during upgrade

If FortiAnalyzer features are enabled before you upgrade to FortiManager 7.0.0, FortiAnalyzer features will be automatically disabled during upgrade to FortiManager 7.0.0.

For example, FortiAnalyzer features are enabled on FortiManager before upgrading to FortiManager 7.0.0. On the System Settings > Dashboard pane, the System Information widget shows FortiAnalyzer Features toggled ON.

After the upgrade to FortiManager 7.0.0 completes, FortiAnalyzer features are disabled, and the FortiAnalyzer Features option is hidden from the GUI.

FortiAnalyzer features disabled when HA enabled

After upgrading to FortiManager 7.0.0, you cannot enable FortiAnalyzer features on any FortiManager nodes that are part of an HA cluster.

In the GUI, the FortiAnalyzer Features option is hidden:

In the CLI, an error message is displayed if you try to enable FortiAnalyzer features:

FMG-VM64 # config system global

(global)# set faz-status enable

(global)# end

Please disable HA before enabling FortiAnalyzer feature.

object set operator error, -7 discard the setting

Command fail. Return code -7

FortiAnalyzer features disabled before forming HA

When FortiAnalyzer features are enabled on FortiManager in stand-alone mode, you cannot form an HA cluster.

When you try to form an HA cluster, FortiManager checks each FortiManager node for enabled FortiAnalyzer features.

In the GUI, when enabled FortiAnalyzer features are found, a message is displayed, asking you to disable FortiAnalyzer features first:

In the CLI, when you try to enable HA mode, an error message is displayed, asking you to disable FortiAnalyzer features first:

FMG-VM64 # config system ha

(ha)# set mode primary

(ha)# end

Please disable FortiAnalyzer feature before enabling HA.

object set operator error, -7 discard the setting

Command fail. Return code -7

FMG-VM64 #

FMG-VM64 # config system ha

(ha)# set mode secondary

(ha)# end

Please disable FortiAnalyzer feature before enabling HA.

object set operator error, -7 discard the setting

Command fail. Return code -7

FMG-VM64 #

When FortiManager detects disabled FortiAnalyzer features on each FortiManager node, you can form a FortiManager HA cluster by using the GUI or the CLI.
