We might not be collecting the right indicators, or we might need some custom method of coalescing multiple indicators to make an up/down decision on. We do this for some other devices like netscaler.
I’m not familiar with what fortigate reports though 😊

Hallo Claus,
Some of our larger FG firewalls are in HA and these devices are polled by Observium as a single unit.
Now you mention it, I haven't found a way to alert when an FG in HA fails over; something that works well with Cisco ASA devices: "status_descr match *primary*"
Hope this helps.
MfG
Darren

This is a question you’d direct at people with fortigate knowledge :)
It’s likely you poll them individually, but I have no idea, I’ve not seen a Fortinet device for a decade.

How to use Observium to properly poll 2 Fortigate firewalls in Active/Passive when using VDOMs? Should Fortigates be polled individualy devices?
Vielen Dank,
