The Provisioning Manager is a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in that provides a user interface for managing Microsoft Provisioning System (MPS) components from a single server. The Provisioning Manager can be installed on the MPS servers. The MPS components that you can administer from this tool include the following:

• Provisioning servers - Includes configuring the manner in which transactions are processed.
  
• Namespaces - Includes administration of managed namespaces.
  
• Credentials implemented in MPS - Includes administration of stored credentials.
  
• Security context - In which procedures run.
