system ha remote-as-heartbeat

set

system ha remote-as-heartbeat

Use this command to enable or disable using remote monitoring as an HA heartbeat. Enable using
remote monitoring as an HA heartbeat so that if both the primary and secondary heartbeat links fail,
remote service monitoring takes over the role of the HA heartbeat. This means that if remote service
monitoring is enabled and both heartbeat links fail or become disconnected, the FortiMail HA group
can continue to operate.

Using remote services as heartbeat provides HA heartbeat only. HA synchronization is only supported
using the primary or secondary heartbeat. To avoid synchronization problems, you should not use
remote service monitoring as a heartbeat for extended periods. This feature is intended only as a
temporary heartbeat solution that operates until you reestablish a normal primary or secondary
heartbeat link.

Syntax

set system ha remote-as-heartbeat {enable | disable}

Example

Enter the following command to enable using remote monitoring as an HA heartbeat::

set system ha remote-as-heartbeat enable
