Virtualmin - multiple physical machines

Really enjoying Virtualmin - great product! Now developing our world domination plans :)

The first thing I looking for is information on how best to manage a number of different physical machines using Virtualmin.

I have had a quick read through the VM2 docs which seem to have a fair but of information on Xen and other virtualisation techniques, but only a passing reference to managing multiple physical machines:

VM2 can also be used in environments that do not use any kind of virtual system technology, to manage many real machines with Virtualmin installed. In this case, the second layer above is effectively removed.

I'm probably just being dense, but I can't find anything much more.

What I would like to do is start planning now for our second virtualmin host, so as to avoid the situation I'm currently in of having to maintain two hosting servers independently of each other.

I'm thinking initially of putting Virtualmin on a second server to play with, and get some experience in administering a group of machines.

Can you point me at some documentation?

Thanks, Neill

To answer myself the dodc I was looking for is at http://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/id,using_vm2/

I don't know how I missed it the first time.

Cheers
