4.4 Grouping distribution-destinations

Software distribution would be rather inefficient if the managing server had to determine requirements at each of the hundreds of distribution-destination systems on the network. Using the JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 system, you can organize systems into groups for specific purposes, and distribute packages to a particular group.

A distribution-destination system can belong to more than one group, which means that you can set overlapping groups defined by department or by project. Figure 4-2 gives an example.
