Lasso Instance Manager is a companion tool for Lasso 9 Server & Apache 2 which permits the management of one or more Lasso 9 instances. This tool can install & uninstall Lasso 9 instances and allows those instances to be configured from one convenient location.

Lasso Instance Manager acts as an intermediary for individual Lasso 9 instances. Each Lasso 9 instance is configured with a host name pattern. Lasso Instance Manager catches all requests with the file extension .lasso and all requests where the URI begins with /lasso9/. It uses the instance host name patterns to determine which running Lasso 9 instance should serve each request.

A new Lasso 9.2 instance will be created and configured with the same administrative username and password that was selected when first initializing Lasso Instance Manager.

Lasso Instance Manager has the following features:

* Add new instance
* Delete instance
* Configure existing instance
* Show instance status
	* Running light
	* Uptime
	* Serial number
* Add instance notes
* Modify instance environment variables
* View instance logs
