A cloud administrator checked out the deployment scripts used to deploy the sandbox environment to a public cloud provider. The administrator modified the script to add an application load balancer in front of the web- based front-end application. The administrator next used the script to recreate a new sandbox environment successfully, and the application was then using the new load balancer.
The following week, a new update was required to add more front-end servers to the sandbox environment. A second administrator made the necessary changes and checked out the deployment scripts. The second administrator then ran the script, but the application load balancer was missing from the new deployment.
Which of the following is the MOST likely reason for this issue?
