Hi,
When we want to configure multihoming agents, we may create multi management groups for agents report to.
You can configure agents to be members of, and to report to, more than one management group by using multihoming. Multihoming allows you to distribute monitoring requirements across different groups within your organization. For example, one group monitors a computer only for security issues, while another group monitors the same computer because it is running a specific Microsoft Windows application, such as Microsoft Exchange. By installing multiple management groups and then multihoming agents, you can distribute monitoring requirements across these groups.
