Explanation

When you reconfigure a deployed iApp, BIG-IP intelligently updates only the associated objects to reflect the new configuration - it does not tear down and rebuild from scratch, making B correct. Option A is wrong because iApp reconfiguration is non-destructive; a full delete-and-redeploy would cause unnecessary downtime. Option C is wrong because the template itself is not what changes - the deployed objects are what get updated, and they are definitely affected. Option D is wrong because iApp reconfiguration is automated by design; the whole point of iApp is to prevent unmanaged manual changes to objects it controls.

Memory tip: Think of iApp reconfiguration like editing a Word template with linked documents - the linked content (objects) updates to match, but nothing gets deleted or disconnected.
