Description
A Panorama™ management server running PAN-OS® 8.1 does not currently support management of appliances running WildFire 7.1 or earlier releases. Even though these management options are visible on the Panorama 8.1 web interface (
Panorama
Managed WildFire Clusters
and
Panorama
Managed WildFire Appliances
), making changes to these settings for appliances running WildFire 7.1 or an earlier release has no effect.

In rare cases when you upgrade a WF-500 appliance from a PAN-OS 7.1 release to a PAN-OS 8.0 release, the disk partition becomes full due to the amount of data on the drive. When you try deleting the backup database to free up space, the
debug wildfire reset backup-database-for-old-samples
CLI command fails and displays the following error:
Server error : Client wf_devsrvr not ready.

WildFire appliances build and release all untested signatures to the connected firewalls every five minutes, which is the maximum time that a signature remains untested (not released to firewalls). When a WildFire appliance joins a cluster, if any untested (unreleased) signatures are on the appliance, they may be lost instead of migrating to the cluster, depending on when the last build of untested signatures occurred.
