CLI templates have increased visibility for troubleshooting

CLI templates have increased visibility for troubleshooting including: line numbering, detailed error report with line number, template name, and reason for the installation failure.

To view CLI template improvements for troubleshooting:
  1. In this example, performing a policy package install for two devices encounters a Copy Failed error for FortiGate "BranchA1."
  2. Click CLI Template Log , and the Preview dialog is displayed with the CLI template content.

  3. Hovering your mouse over the red x where an error is indicated displays information about the error.
  4. After the installation is finished, information is displayed in the task monitor. Double click on a task ID and select View Progress Report.
    In this example, the progress report for FortiGate BranchA1 includes the following information:
    • The CLI template name: Hostname
    • The line number: 2
    • The reason the copy failed: branch_id not exist, syntax error
