Smartupgrade in a global organization

Hi

for upgrading Lotus Notes Clients we would like to use Smartupgrade. In our environment we have centralized mail and app servers plus a few decentralized application servers.

To reduce the WAN impact of rolling out a 500MB software packge to thousands of users we want to force users to use the "nearest" replica.

Unfortunately I can only configure ONE smartUpgrade database per server (server config doc), which means that all users which share the same mail server will have to use the same SU replica.

Is it possible to force some users from a mail server to use a different smart upgrade database than the other users from the same server would use?

Example:
We have US + AU users on the same mail server.
We want to redirect both groups to their individual local application server, where we host a replica of the smart upgrade database.

Thanks for your advise on how to do that.
Th.Hampel
