What was the main goal of the Satsuma Rebellion? was there a plan if the Samurai *Did* end up winning the Rebellion?

I'm doing research on the Reason the Samurai social class ended in 1877 and i have a question.

I'm wondering what exactly the Plan was of the Rebellion in the first place. is it known if there was a plan in the first place, or was it just to protect the samurai social class itself?
