The common vibs between host and image profile will be skipped. To preserve installed VIBs, use profile update instead. WARNING: If your installation requires a reboot, you need to disable HA first.

update

Any VIBs in the image profile which are not related to any installed VIBs will be added to the host. WARNING: If your installation requires a reboot, you need to disable HA first.
