Description
On a FortiMail in HA mode, when a configuration is updated on the Primary unit, the Secondary unit is immediately updated as well. This is valid for both, Active-Passive HA and Config-only HA.
Additionally, units in Active-Passive HA can synchronize data directories - system quarantine, email archives, email users’ mailboxes (server mode only), preferences, and per-recipient quarantines).
The interval for this synchronization is up to 20 minutes on units running firmware v5.0.3 and higher. For units running firmware prior v5.0.3 this interval is 20-40 minutes.
