Verify that the chassis is operating normally.
If your FortiGate-5005-DIST security system includes one FortiController-5208
module it must be installed in slot 1 of your chassis. The FortiController-5208
module installed in slot 1 becomes the primary I/O module.
If your system includes two FortiController-5208 modules the second one is
installed in slot 2. Use the following steps to install each FortiController-5208
module. The FortiController-5208 module installed in slot 2 becomes the
secondary I/O module.
