# SP Add Master Subcommand

access: Managers

Adds a master Service Processor (MSP) for a subordinate Service Processor.

Adding a master downloads the MSP’s public key so that the master can make configuration changes to the subordinate without further authentication. It also tells the subordinate to send status changes to the MSP so that someone logged into the MSP can see the status of all subordinates.
