FC-10-0VM02-248-02-60 is a 5 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.
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.
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.
The five-year VM02 purchase should be tied to a durable messaging architecture and a funded exit path. Assess future mailbox growth, domain consolidation, storage expansion and the expected life of the virtualization platform before committing. Each yearly review should verify that backups can be restored to a supported host and that the support owner can access the Fortinet account. Trigger an early commercial review when capacity or cloud strategy changes materially.
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.
A five-year support term requires lifecycle and capacity approval. Compare the commitment with the planned FortiMail version, mail-volume forecast, hypervisor roadmap and funded migration date. Run an annual fitness check even though no annual purchase event exposes stale registration or ownership.
The long-horizon evidence file should document stranded-term risk, annual recovery checks and the trigger for moving to a different VM tier or service model. Commercial support availability does not prove that the present architecture should remain unchanged for all sixty months.
