Hi,

After rinstalling configuration backup and reinserting SSD firepower module, we still not see any firepower menu on aour asdm.

any help please to recover this function ?

we are using Asdm 7.9.1 and ASA 9.6.4

For the SSD it looks like you will need to reformat completely, install FP software again and then backup from there.

Important thing would be to ensure the software version stays same initially.
