FortiClient EMS 7.4 case: A redundant EMS implementation has two application nodes but has not verified consistency of its PostgreSQL recovery design. Which first-line investigation would best distinguish the suspected cause?
Inspect backup scope, database recovery logs, certificate keys, and end-to-end endpoint check-in after restoration. This diagnostic separates the suspected fault from other FortiClient EMS problems before altering security policy. If confirmed, implement: Create a tested EMS recovery procedure covering configuration, database, certificates and documented high-availability dependencies. Evidence of success: A controlled failover or restore recreates expected endpoint records and permits authorized policy distribution.
Inspect the operating system release, EMS build requirements, and Fortinet migration guidance. This check would be appropriate for another issue involving linux host prerequisite for ems 7.4. For the present symptom, begin with: Inspect backup scope, database recovery logs, certificate keys, and end-to-end endpoint check-in after restoration.
Inspect EMS license state, endpoint count, license type and feature-specific requirements. This check would be appropriate for another issue involving license entitlement and device coverage. For the present symptom, begin with: Inspect backup scope, database recovery logs, certificate keys, and end-to-end endpoint check-in after restoration.

For the present symptom, begin with: Inspect backup scope, database recovery logs, certificate keys, and end-to-end endpoint check-in after restoration.
FortiClient EMS 7.4 case: A shared EMS admin password is used by multiple support vendors, making profile changes impossible to attribute. Which immediate corrective action best addresses the observed problem?
Create named EMS administrator accounts with required roles and retain auditable change records. Technical basis: Management identity and role separation support accountability for changes affecting many endpoints. Confirm by checking whether the audit view attributes a test profile edit to the correct named administrator while unrelated privileges remain denied.
Replace or renew the EMS administration TLS certificate with one trusted for the actual console name. This is a response to a different condition, ems https admin certificate, under the same Fortinet exam task.
