services by optionally specifying a group restriction when deploying services
- Create a service definition
- Duplicate a SAS Foundation Services deployment

- Export a SAS Foundation Services deployment to a UTF-* encoded XML file, so that
it can be later re-imported into a SAS metadata repository or
be used as a source from which a services deployment configuration
can be deployed
- Import a SAS Foundation Services deployment from a UTF-8 encoded XML file
into a SAS metadata repository
- Save/Merge a service's configuration
- Select a SAS Foundation Service that supports this feature and save its

data and merge it into a service's configuration.
