If HA is already enabled, go to System > Config > HA to display the cluster members list.
Select Edit for the FortiGate unit with Role of master (also called the primary unit). When
you edit the HA configuration of the primary unit, all changes are synchronized to the other
cluster units.

You can configure HA options for a FortiGate unit with virtual domains (VDOMs) enabled
by logging into the web-based manager as the global admin administrator and then going
to System > Config > HA.
Note: If your FortiGate cluster uses virtual domains, you are configuring HA virtual
clustering. Most virtual cluster HA options are the same as normal HA options. However,
virtual clusters include VDOM partitioning options. Other differences between configuration
options for regular HA and for virtual clustering HA are described below and in the
FortiGate HA Overview and the FortiGate HA Guide.
