We are. We have two very different sets of clients, which need to be
managed very differently. One set is a collection of Unix systems. The
other is all our human-owned desktop PCs and Macs. These groups are much
too different to be accomodated by Policy Domains and such, because we
manage things like migration, reclamation, and database backup
differently for the two. Our life has become MUCH easier since splitting
into two server processes. (We run VM, where this was very easy to do.)
