The Spring Boot Admin Server is capable of using Spring Clouds DiscoveryClient to discover applications. When you do this the clients don't have to include the spring-boot-starter-admin-client. You just have to configure a DiscoveryClient - everything else is done by AutoConfiguration.

One note: If you omit the Spring Boot Admin Client in you Client Applications you can't download the logfile (but hopefully my pull request will make it into Spring Boot 1.3.0);
