The Satellite Management Servers tab displays all Core and Satellite servers that currently belong to the Servers group. You can select one of three possible views on this tab, namely:
You can open the Server property page for each server to view or edit server properties, to view assigned Locations, and to view or edit Server Pools assignments.
You can use the toolbar buttons on the Servers tab to define additional Satellite servers by adding devices to the Servers group and then installing the Satellite server component to those devices. Satellite servers are devices added to the Servers group, with the Satellite server component installed.
