Re: start instance sync behavior

I'm not sure my answer to this was correct.

If I create a new instance and tell it that it's part of a cluster,
then I would expect it to get all the cluster's applications.

But if I create a new instance and just tell it to use the same
configuration as the cluster is using, it's not actually part of the
cluster, and shouldn't inherit the cluster's applications.

I would close https://glassfish.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=12853
as invalid.
