I suppose the main reason is because I'm using the display of the SB3
as an indicator and to display the Weather plugin rather than listen to
music. So when I hit the power button on the IR remote the SC server
wakes up. But the SB display stays blank. My preference is that the SB
wakes up once the SC is alive and displays the wether plugin which also
indicates visually to me the powerful server is now awake.

Sounds like maybe this is the route I should explore for my specific
requirment. Can I assume it is fairly well documented on the Wiki?

The likelihood is that my SBB will always go to SN, whereas my SB3 will
always go to the low power machine. If you could give me some pointers
on how I could achieve this it would greatly appreciated.
