That’s a good question. We never specified what happens in sibling relationships with
conflicts. Not everything can form a perfect inheritance hierarchy, so we need a strategy
to deal with the problem. My thinking is to follow install order. So we would say
hierarchy is the first preference, followed by install order of the feature pack.

Can there be more than one layered product? If they are, are they "siblings",
or on top of each other? If they are "siblings" and two override the same thing,
who wins? I think if they are on top of each other, then there isn't really a
problem.

but would the provisioning tool take a list of installed servers and attempt the same
operation on them all (for example applying a the relevant patch to each individual
server), or is it expected to operate on one server at a time?
