The FortiManager 7.6 Administrator Study Guide states that global policies must be explicitly assigned: “You must explicitly assign global policy packages to specific ADOMs,” and FortiManager can also target specific policy packages in individual ADOMs. The lab guide confirms that assignment is performed from the Global Database ADOM: the administrator selects Global Database ADOM, clicks Assignment, adds the ADOM, chooses Specify Policy Packages To Assign, selects the target package, and then clicks Assign.

So creating a new policy package inside ADOM1 does not automatically inherit the existing global package assignment. It also does not automatically install policies. The administrator must go back to the global ADOM and assign the global policy package to that new local policy package.

The correct answer is D. In FortiManager HA manual mode, the study guide explains what happens when members change: if the primary fails, you must manually promote a secondary and repoint the others, but that is not this scenario. For a failed secondary, the relevant exact extract is: “if you remove a secondary member from the HA configuration, the primary FortiManager removes the secondary serial number from the central management configuration of FortiGate, and updates the managed FortiGate devices immediately.”

Operationally, in the HA configuration, removing that failed secondary means deleting its HA peer entry from the primary, which corresponds to removing the failed device’s peer IP. A is false because manual HA is not transparent in this case. B is only a diagnostic detail. C applies when the primary fails, not a secondary.

=========

The import report clearly shows: " firewall profile-protocol-options " , SKIPPED, " (name=default, oid=3491, DUPLICATE) " . In FortiManager import reporting, SKIPPED means the object was not imported or updated, and DUPLICATE means an object with that identity already exists in the ADOM database. So FortiManager did not update its database with the imported value for the object default, which makes C correct.

The lab guide reinforces this behavior in the conflict-handling workflow. It explains that during import, FortiManager checks for duplicate names and conflicts, and for conflicting objects the administrator may need to choose whether to keep the value from FortiGate or FortiManager. For the default Firewall Profile-Protocol-Options object, the guide specifically discusses keeping the existing FortiManager value to avoid unnecessary changes.

=========

Running the script through the policy package or ADOM database method allows FortiManager to properly interpret object relationships and dependencies in the IPsec configuration, preventing object mismatch errors when pushing complex VPN settings directly via CLI.

When a script is run using Remote FortiGate Directly via CLI, FortiManager sends the commands straight to the FortiGate and does not preview or validate dependent objects first. The study guide also explains that scripts containing ADOM-level objects or dynamic mappings must be executed on the Policy Package or ADOM Database, then installed through the installation workflow. That matches this IPsec error scenario, where phase2-interface is referencing an object relationship that FortiManager cannot properly validate in direct CLI mode. Therefore, the administrator should run the script on the policy package or ADOM database method, then install it.

Option A addresses only one possible syntax issue. B is a valid deployment approach in general, but it is not what the question asks as the direct fix for this script execution error. C is incorrect and would not resolve the object dependency mismatch.
