Systems Management Server (SMS) helps you create and maintain collections. Collections gather resources into logical, manageable groups in ways that best enable you to manage your SMS site. Collections can reflect the structure and organization of your organization by putting resources in groups such as user groups, clients, and routers. SMS uses collections as targets during software distribution to clients.
You can define and maintain resource collections by using Collections in the SMS Administrator console. When you select a collection that is defined for the site, the resources in that collection appear in the details pane:
