- Create new software instance, create new global zone. The deployment will create a copy
of the source software instance and add it to the target system. The deployment will create a new
global zone CSI on the target system and connect the target software instance (the resulting copy)
to it.
- Create new software instance, connect to existing global zone. The deployment will create
a copy of the source software instance and add it to the target system. The deployment will connect
the target software instance to an existing global zone CSI.
- Replace existing software instance, connect to its existing global zone. The deployment
will delete an existing software instance and create a copy of the source software instance to take
its place. The deployment will connect the target software instance to the existing instance's
global zone CSI.
