setting up a topology with a prime client and a client0

I think I've seen it mentioned there can be both a prime client and a client0 in the topology. I've seen one results report suggesting, to me anyway, their topology has such. In the Clients portion of their table it lists client0 and a controller.

Can someone tell me how this is accomplished? I'm assuming the controller is their prime client. I don't see how to set this up the user guide. All I can find about it is on pg 63, where it says it can be set up that way.

Thanks,

Easiest way to do it would be to copy the vclient0 directory to a new system.  After ensuring staf, hosts files, etc are all setup in a comparable fashion to your original client0/primeclient, you can then modify your VMMARK2.config file to reference the tile0 client as your new system.

Ex :

Old entry : CLIENTS="primeclient client1 client2"

New entry : CLIENTS="newclient client1 client2"
