Hello,

We are seriously considering deploying OpenVAS in our organisation, and we will 
most certainly opt for a distributed architecture that matches our network 
segmentation. We understand so far that a Master-Slave configuration involves 
two instances of OpenVAS, each slave running on its own Manager-Scanner binome. 
But since each such Manager "has to take care on its own to update the feed and 
release", while the Scanner synchronizes automatically with its Manager, could 
we instead use one single Manager, and bypass the Slave Managers to connect 
directly to multiple scanner components of OpenVAS, defined as additonal 
scanners in the web interface? I.e., instead of having one OpenVAS, PaloAlto 
and w3af scanner, running rather many instances of the OpenVAS one from one 
single Manager? And if so, how would that be handled by the Manager, 
performance-wise?

Thank you,
