For FortiSandbox devices purchased after March 17, 2017, WINXP VM types and its licenses are no longer supported due to Microsoft EOL.

The user can change the default settings according to the majority of file types in their environment. For example, if the majority file type is Office files and WIN7X86VM is associated with Office files, the user can decrease the clone number of other VM images and increase the clone number of the WIN7X86VM image.

In a cluster environment, clone numbers should be configured individually on each node as their models might be different.
