Also if you need it in conjunction with installation of packages, see `pkg install --require-new-be --be-name myNewBE pkgnames...`

And then you have to reboot into that BE.

Also there are backup BEs in the command, where it clones off to freeze the current state, and then changes the "live" current state (assuming packages not requiring a reboot).
