Master/Slave servers

[WaDavid]

I recently noticed this new section in the license and the fact that one can now buy master server licenses.

How exactly does this work, ie. the technical details.

Is my assumption right that you get this:
A master control panel, where you can add lets say a user on who can add up to lets say 20 000 domains, but once a specific slave is full (eg. lets make it 500 domains) it will automatically start adding the new domains after that to the next plesk slave server that is not full yet?

If I am wrong, how exactly does it work and why would one want this feature.

Thank you,

No, it is nothing like that I'm afraid.

It just allows you to monitor your slave servers from the master plesk admin login, and to login to the slave servers via the master plesk admin login, but that's about it.

For anything more complicated you need Plesk Expand.

Thank you.

Dissapointing, I expected a bit too much I guess, though expand is very nice it doesn't do exactly what we need, or perhaps I understand it a bit wrong.
