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.
