Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

When replacing a failed device in FortiManager, the administrator must use the device name of the failed device and the serial number of the new device. This ensures that FortiManager correctly updates its records to reflect the replacement. The command instructs FortiManager to associate the existing device entry with the new hardware by changing only the serial number part of the device's entry, preserving the original device name.

To replace the faulty device with the new device, take the following steps: 1. Note the device name of the original FortiGate. If the replacement device is already listed as unregistered, then you will need to delete it from the unregistered device list in the root ADOM. 2. Add the serial number of the replacement FortiGate. After the replace command is executed, FortiManager updates the serial number in its database. 3. Verify that the new device serial number is associated with the faulty device in FortiManager. You can do this using the CLI or the System Information widget of FortiGate. 4. Send a request from the replacement device to register it with FortiManager Reference [Page 283] - https://ebin.pub/fortinet-fortimanager-study-guide-for-fortimanager-72.html
