Step 2. Map the new services to a hostname.

When services are mapped to a hostname they are set to the enable
state of their parent agent/ISV Group. If the agent/ISV Group is
disabled then the mapped service is disabled. In the last step we
created agents and disabled them. Therefore we do not need to
explicitly disable them after mapping them.

Step 3. Delete the first site to transition over.

For the purposes of this scenario, the eastcoastsite converts over first.
By deleting the site (deleting the sites ISV Group), the SA9200s
sends all new referrals to the remaining sites. In this case that leaves
just the westcoastsite, since the brokered sites are still disabled.
Deleting a site also causes the removal of all of its associated services
from hostname mappings. To prove this, check the hostname after
deletion.
