Using FortiManager to manage FortiAnalyzer devices

Using FortiManager to manage FortiAnalyzer devices

You can add FortiAnalyzer devices to FortiManager and manage them. When you add a FortiAnalyzer device to FortiManager, FortiManager automatically enables FortiAnalyzer features. FortiAnalyzer and FortiManager must be running the same OS version, at least 5.6 or later.

Logs are stored on the FortiAnalyzer device, not the FortiManager device. You configure log storage settings on the FortiAnalyzer device; you cannot change log storage settings using FortiManager.

For more information, see Adding FortiAnalyzer devices in the FortiManager Administration Guide.

In Device Manager on FortiAnalyzer, a message informs you the device is managed by FortiManager and all changes should be performed on FortiManager to avoid conflict. The top right of this pane displays a lock icon. If ADOMs are enabled, the System Settings > ADOMs pane displays a lock icon beside the ADOM managed by FortiManager. When you delete FortiAnalyzer from FortiManager, the ADOM on FortiAnalyzer should be unlocked. If the ADOM remains locked, you will not be able to manage the devices. To unlock the ADOM, enter the following command in the FortiAnalyzer CLI:

diagnose dvm adom unlock <adom>

For more information about this command, see the FortiAnalyzer CLI Reference.
