execute : restore image
 
restore image
Use this command to install firmware on the primary partition and reboot.
 
Back up the configuration before installing new firmware. Installing new firmware can change default settings and reset settings that are incompatible with the new version. For backup commands, see “execute backup full-config” and “execute backup cli-config”.
Unlike installing firmware via TFTP during a boot interrupt, installing firmware using this command will attempt to preserve settings and files, and not necessarily restore the FortiWeb appliance to its firmware/factory default configuration.
To use this command, your administrator account’s access control profile must have either w or rw permission to the mntgrp area. For more information, see “Permissions”.
