Selected Answers: D


Parameters that must match for all members
The Administrator Study Guide 7.4 indicates that, in addition to the group-id, group-name, mode, password and hbdev, the override setting is part of the values that must be identical for the cluster to remain in an in-sync state. If they differ, the machines do not share the same priority view and the negotiation is invalidated.

Conclusion
To get the cluster back in-sync, the administrator must set the same override value on both FortiGate (either enable or disable) and restart the HA negotiation.

Selected Answers: B


B is correct

Study Guide 7.4, page 415: override setting and priority values are not synchronized to cluster members. You must enable override and adjust priory for each member.

So having override enabled on FGT2 and with its higher priority makes it take over the primary role
