CLI Reference

system flash list

system flash list

Use these commands to display the firmware disk usage and partitions.

FortiMail boots from the currently active partition unless you connect to the local console, interrupt the boot loader, and select a different method.

Firmware software updates replace the image on the active partition, unless you use the method to install fallback FortiMail firmware on the inactive boot partition. Once the inactive partition has firmware installed, you can use a local console connection to reboot and, during the boot loader, switch which partition is currently active to boot from the other partition instead.

Syntax
