### Cleanup

If there is a need to update the deployment settings such as the HLQ after a previour run, consider that the deployment process does not perform a full cleanup of the datasets.
Before attempting deployment again, make sure the following datasets are deleted to avoid write conflicts:

After the portable software instance or software instance is registered in z/OSMF, you can use z/OSMF Deployments to install the product software and create the product data sets (global, CSI, target libraries, and distribution libraries) for the new software instance. The deployment jobs create a copy of the source product data sets to create the product target runtime environment. Creating a copy of the SMP/E target data sets keeps the SMP/E environment clean and separates the product runtime environment for maintenance activities. You can also perform z/OSMF workflows to customize the SMP/E data sets, mount UNIX System Services (USS) files if necessary, and configure the new software instance on the target system.

## Prerequisite - Define a new deployment

To install Zowe PSWI using z/OSMF and make the product software available for use on a system by users and other programs, you need to define a new deployment. This step defines the SMP/E environment name and the prefix of the CSI data set in z/OSMF. Specify data set allocation parameters for all SMP/E data sets, target libraries, and distribution libraries.

To define a new deployment, complete the deployment checklist as specified in [Deploying software](https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.4.0?topic=task-deploying-software) in the IBM documentation.
