An administrator is configuring a new FortiManager HA pair. The administrator wants to ensure that the configuration database, including policy packages and device settings, is synchronized between the primary and secondary. What should the administrator do?

Use a third-party tool to synchronize the configuration database.

Configure the secondary unit to pull the configuration from the primary on a schedule.

Enable HA and configure the synchronization settings to include the configuration database.

Manually copy the configuration database from the primary to the secondary after initial setup.

An administrator manages a FortiGate cluster with two members. The cluster is in active-active mode. The administrator wants to ensure that both members have the same configuration. What should the administrator do in FortiManager?

Use the FortiGate cluster's native synchronization feature to copy the configuration from one member to the other.

Create a single policy package and install it to the cluster, ensuring both members receive the same configuration.

Manually configure each member with the same settings in FortiManager.

Create separate policy packages for each cluster member and install them individually.

How does FortiManager handle configuration consistency for a FortiGate cluster?

It pushes the same configuration to all cluster members and monitors for drift

It requires manual configuration of each cluster member separately

It only monitors the cluster and does not push configurations

It configures only the primary cluster member and lets the cluster sync internally

A company has a FortiManager HA pair in active-passive mode. The primary unit fails, and the secondary takes over. After the failover, the administrator notices that FortiManager is not managing the FortiGate clusters as expected. What is the most likely cause?

The secondary unit is in a different administrative domain than the primary.

The FortiGate clusters are not configured to connect to the secondary unit.

The secondary unit does not have the latest configuration for the FortiGate clusters.

The FortiGate clusters are not compatible with the secondary unit's firmware version.

An administrator is troubleshooting a FortiManager HA pair where the secondary unit is not receiving configuration updates. The primary unit shows the secondary as 'out of sync'. What should the administrator check first?

The configuration database on the secondary unit.

The HA heartbeat link between the primary and secondary units.

The firmware version on the secondary unit.

The network configuration on the primary unit.
