Why each option
The FortiGate has entered system conserve mode, which by default triggers the blocking of new sessions to manage resource consumption.
While entering conserve mode generates an event log, the statement implies the output *is* the log generation itself, rather than confirming the mode and its actions.
When the FortiGate's memory usage crosses defined thresholds, it enters conserve mode to protect system stability, as indicated by output like 'Entering conserve mode'.
A primary action of FortiGate conserve mode is to block new sessions by default, which prevents further memory allocation and allows existing sessions to complete gracefully.
System conserve mode manages memory and session resources but does not automatically change the global antivirus fail-open settings.
