Satellites
A Satellite is a managed device that can perform some of the roles that a ZENworks
®
Primary
Server normally performs, including authentication, information collection, content distribution, and
imaging. A Satellite can be any managed Windows device (server or workstation), but not a Primary
Server. A Satellite can also be an unmanaged Linux device (server or workstation) that has the
ZENworks Agent for Linux installed. For more information, see “
Satellite Requirements ” in the
ZENworks 10 Configuration Management Installation Guide and “ Deploying the ZENworks
Adaptive Agent ” in the ZENworks 10 Configuration Management Discovery, Deployment, and
Retirement Reference .
When you configure a Satellite, you specify which roles it performs (Authentication, Collection,
Content, or Imaging). A Satellite can also perform roles that might be added by third-party products
that are snap-ins to the ZENworks 10 Configuration Management framework.
NOTE: The Imaging Satellite role is not supported for Windows 2000.
You might, for example, create a Satellite in a location across a slow WAN link and create Closest
Server rules to offload one or more roles from the Primary Server to the newly created Satellite to
improve the performance of your ZENworks system.
NOTE: For information about Satellites from the perspective of an end user using the ZENworks
Adaptive Agent, see “ Satellite Roles ” in the Novell ZENworks Adaptive Agent Help .
