FC-10-0VM02-248-02-12 is a 1 year FortiCare Premium support entitlement for one existing, registered FortiMail VM02 virtual appliance. It is not a FortiMail license, VM image, hardware appliance, security-service bundle or cloud-hosting subscription.
VM02 licenses a two-vCPU FortiMail virtual appliance. Preserve the mail-flow topology, configured domains, storage allocation and hypervisor ownership with the entitlement. This contract supports an existing registered VM02; it does not supply the base virtual-appliance license or convert VM01 capacity into VM02.
The service file should show where message queues, quarantines and configuration backups are protected, plus who can provide diagnostics during an incident. Keep the FortiMail serial and VM identity synchronized after host migration so FortiCare support is not delayed by stale registration data.
Fortinet documents FortiMail VM02 with up to 2 virtual CPUs, 1 to 4 virtual NICs, 1 GB to 8 GB of virtual memory and 50 GB to 2 TB of storage. These are licensed/deployment limits to verify, not resources delivered by this support SKU.
For annual VM02 coverage, focus on whether the two-vCPU tier still matches the active mail flow. Capture normal and peak queue behavior, the destinations of quarantine and log data, and the current failover method. The renewal reviewer should decide whether the instance remains independent, moves down after domain reduction, or needs a larger tier; support continuation should follow that sizing decision rather than precede it.
An annual term supports a near-term renewal decision. Record the current contract end date, avoid a coverage gap or unexplained overlap, and schedule the next review before expiry. Reconfirm the registered VM identity, FortiMail software eligibility and account owner at each yearly renewal.
The annual purchase file should retain the Fortinet quote, activation confirmation, support account and one accountable renewal owner. Review open cases, platform sizing and planned migrations before extending coverage; do not treat an electronic support entitlement as inventory or a perpetual right to updates.
Fortinet describes Premium as per-device technical support with web and telephone case access, firmware updates, asset-portal access and advanced replacement where a physical product and applicable RMA terms permit it. A virtual-appliance contract provides the support channel and software entitlement boundary; it does not create a physical replacement item.
