When an administrator initiates the action to move a device between Administrative Domains (ADOMs) in the FortiManager GUI, a confirmation dialog box is immediately displayed. This prompt, as shown in Option A, serves as a crucial checkpoint. It informs the administrator of the consequences—that the device will be removed from its current ADOM and its configuration will be retrieved after being added to the new one. The user must click "OK" to proceed with the move. This dialog is the direct and initial output of the move action itself, preceding the actual execution and subsequent status changes.

B: The "Re-install policy" prompt appears after the device has been successfully moved and FortiManager determines its configuration is out of sync with the policy packages in the new ADOM.

C: This shows a log entry. While a log is generated to record the event, it is not a primary dialog box or interactive output displayed to the administrator during the move process.

D: The "Modified" configuration status is a result that is displayed in the Device Manager pane after the move is complete and the device's configuration has been retrieved and compared against the new ADOM's database.

1. Fortinet FortiManager Administration Guide 7.4.1

Page 238

Section: "Moving devices to another ADOM".

The guide states

"When you move a device to another ADOM

a confirmation dialog box is displayed. After you confirm the move

the device is moved to the other ADOM." This directly confirms that the dialog box (Option A) is the immediate output when the action is initiated.

The same section later explains the consequences: "When a device is moved to a new ADOM

the device's configuration is retrieved. The configuration is compared against the new ADOM's database

and the device's configuration status becomes modified." This supports why options B and D are subsequent results

not the initial output.
