Clone a Tenant

The fastest way to create multiple tenants with similar parameters is by using the Clone Tenant feature. You can select a tenant definition that you have already created and "clone" it, changing parameters for the resulting new definitions where required.

Follow these steps:

1. Log in as a user with the Administrator role.
2. Navigate to the Manage Tenants page.

   The page displays the current list of tenants.

3. Select the tenant definition that you want to clone, and click Clone.

   The Clone Tenant page opens.

4. Supply the required information in the fields provided. By default, basic parameters are cloned except for the Name and Account ID parameters.

   Name

   Is a name for the tenant. Limited to 45 characters.

   Account ID

   Identifies this tenant; usually corresponds to the tenant account number or service tier with the MSP.

5. Type a username and password for the tenant administrator account.
6. Type a username and password for the tenant user account.
7. Click Save.

   A new tenant definition is created, based on the cloned tenant definition. However, it lacks required parameters, such as IP domains. You must now set up the tenant environment. For more information, see Setting Up Tenants.
