Some Background info:
   Currently the following dir/files are used to run an instance:

deploy
var - 
    activemq
    catalina
    config
    derby
    log
    security
    shared
    temp
    txlog
   I like hot deploy directory being outside of the 'var'. All these
directories go under G/foo for an instance named foo. The 'var' created
by build has:

var 
   config
   log
   security
   temp

>If the tree doesn't exist we fail with a message like: "Server

>serverInstance.sh script to create a new instance." 

   The issue here is do we make a copy (for running default instance)
during build or ask our _developers_ to get used to this message and
using serverInstance.sh. IIUC, you are saying that create the template
and the default instance during build. And provide a script for
creating additional instances.

  yup..

Thanks
