Use the Device42 Appliance Manager to back up your data, update the Main Appliance, generate a log bundle [for uploading to the Device42 Support Portal](https://upload.device42.com/), restart the application, and configure **System** and **Global Settings**.

## Access the Appliance Manager

![Device42 Appliance Manager Home Screen v19](/assets/images/device42-appliance-manager-login/ap-home-view.png)

- For HTTP, access the Appliance Manager using port 4242: `http://your-ip-address-or-FQDN:4242`
- For HTTPS, use port 4343: `https://your-ip-address-or-FQDN:4343`

Alternatively, go to your Main Appliance login page and click the **Appliance Manager** link.

## AWS Login

For **marketplace** AWS installations, use `d42admin` as the username and your **AWS Instance ID** as the default password. See [the AWS installation instructions](https://docs.device42.com/getstarted/installation/installation-amazon-web-services/#accessing-the-d42-appliance-manager---aws-marketplace-installs) for more information.

If you **manually** installed AWS using a downloaded image, use the default Device42 username, `d42admin`, and password, `default`, to log in to the Appliance Manager.

import ThemedImage from '@theme/ThemedImage'

Cloning a device in Device42 saves time and provides consistency when adding multiple similar devices.

Navigate to **Tools > Templates & Bulk Operations > Clone Device**.

- Select a **Device to clone** using the **magnifying glass icon** and choose the properties to include in the clone(s) using the checkboxes.

**Notes** will not be associated with the clones.

<ThemedImage
alt="Device to Clone's name and properties"
sources={{
light: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/clone-a-device/name-and-properties-light.png'),
dark: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/clone-a-device/name-and-properties-dark.png'),
}}
/>

- Input the number of clones you wish to create in the **# of devices** field. Next, choose between naming all the clone(s) by selecting a **Device Name Profile** or naming each clone individually by entering a comma-separated list of names.

<ThemedImage
alt="Number of clones and naming options"
sources={{
light: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/clone-a-device/count-and-name-light.png'),
dark: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/clone-a-device/count-and-name-dark.png'),
}}
/>

- Optionally, you can include an original **Asset Number Profile**, **Service Level**, and **Customer** to be associated with the clone(s). If you apply a new **Service Level** or **Customer** to the clone(s), be sure you deselect the relevant checkbox under **Properties** to prevent the original device property from being cloned.

- When you're ready to create the clone(s), click **Clone** in the bottom-right corner.

## View Blade Chassis Devices

Locate your blade chassis in Device42 by navigating to **Resources > All Devices** and filtering for blade chassis devices:

- Click **+ More** and select the **Blade Chassis** checkbox to display its dropdown menu.
- Choose **Yes** from the dropdown.

<ThemedImage
alt="Filtering for blade chassis on the Devices list page"
sources={{
light: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/filter-devices-light.png'),
dark: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/filter-devices-dark.png'),
}}
/>

## The Blades Tab

Select a blade chassis from the Devices list page. Scroll down to the **Blades** tab, located below the device basic details section.

The **Blades** tab shows information about each device in the chassis. Blades are sorted by **Slot** number. Each blade has a link to its device page and displays its **Serial #**, **Asset #**, **Slot Location**, and **Hardware Model**.

<ThemedImage
alt="Blade tab on a blade chassis device"
sources={{
light: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/blades-tab-light.png'),
dark: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/blades-tab-dark.png'),
}}
/>

### Add a New Blade

In device **Edit** mode, from the **Blade** tab, you can add blades to a chassis by clicking **+ Add New Blade**. The hardware model for the blade device must exist beforehand.

<ThemedImage
alt="Adding a new blade"
sources={{
light: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/add-new-blade-window-light.png'),
dark: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/add-new-blade-window-dark.png'),
}}
/>

## The Interactive Blade Chassis Layout

Layouts allow you to visualize blades within their chassis. The overall layout architecture is defined by the chassis [Hardware Model](#editing-hardware-models), which needs to be defined before you add and position specific blades.

From the view mode of the [device chassis page](#view-blade-chassis-devices), click the **ellipsis menu** and select **Layout** from the dropdown.

<ThemedImage
alt="Device Layout button"
sources={{
light: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/layout-button-light.png'),
dark: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/layout-button-dark.png'),
}}
/>

Click **Turn ON** to edit the layout. Drag and drop the blades to position them in the correct slots. Please note that the blade slot numbers must be numeric and not alphanumeric.

<ThemedImage
alt="Edit Layout button"
sources={{
light: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/layout-view-light.png'),
dark: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/layout-view-dark.png'),
}}
/>


:::tip
For blade-specific templating information, see the [Blade Slots documentation](device-blade-slots.md).
:::

### Editing Hardware Models

To edit the layout of a blade, first define its Hardware Model under **Infrastructure > Hardware Models > + Add Device Hardware Model**.

<ThemedImage
alt="Hardware Model menu"
sources={{
light: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/hardware-model-menu-light.png'),
dark: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/hardware-model-menu-dark.png'),
}}
/>

You can find a link to an existing Hardware Model in the right panel of an individual **Layout**.

Add a **New Slot** to an existing model by dragging it to the layout and filling in the fields:

<ThemedImage
alt="Add new blade"
sources={{
light: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/new-blade-slot-in-model-light.png'),
dark: useBaseUrl('/assets/images/device-blade-chassis/new-blade-slot-in-model-dark.png'),
}}
/>

- **Choose Slot Size:** Choose between full, half, double options, and quarter heights.
- **Choose orientation:** Select **Vertical** or **Horizontal** positioning.
- **Slot Number:** Enter the next slot number in the sequence.

Visit the [Hardware Model (Templates)](hardware-models-templates.mdx) page to view details about Hardware Models that apply to all devices, not only blades.
