Actual let me re-phase my question perhaps I wasn't to clear... I meant can
I have multiple MP's and DP's within a single SMS site design that spans
different locations.
Let say I create my primary site at the mainoffice (MP, DP SLP etc)then can
I go into sms site properties on my primary site and assign addtional MP
and DP for all my remote locations..
What I am trying to say is can a single SMS site have multiple MP's and DP's
? or do I need to create seconday sites ?

TIA
John
