I am using Ignition Edge on 3 identical machines which are running on Raspberry Pi 5’s.

We built one of these ignition gateways fully with project then just created backups to install onto the other two machines. I am now trying to connect these three machines to our central gateway through the gateway network but am getting faults on 2 and 3 after 1 is connected. I realized the Local Cert has the same serial for all 3 (assuming because duplication). How do I go about creating new ones for Gateway’s 2 and 3 so that they can all be connected to main at once then become agents of that gateway using their EAM modules?

Find the `.uuid` file (depending on your version I can give you a more specific location), shut the gateway down, delete the file, restart the gateway.

do you know where the file location would be in Linux AARCH 8.1.48? I need to update these files on two edge gateways that were copied from the first gateway. I dont want to have to have someone reinstall edge on these systems.

> If you are cloning Gateways to then be connected via Gateway Network, it is important to notice that there is a Gateway unique identifier in %IgnitionInstallationDirectory%/data/.uuid.

On Linux the default installation directory is `/usr/local/bin/ignition`:
