Bertrand Delacretaz edited comment on SLING-2347 at 1/4/12 4:48 PM: -------------------------------------------------------------------- Startup filter disabler bundle added in revision 1227218 - its Activator disables the StartupFilter if found. With this, the use case is as follows: 1. Start the startupfilter bundle at a low run level, ideally before the Sling servlet 2. Any requests return a 503 status until the filter is disabled 3. StartupInfoProvider services can be registered to provide additional information about startup progress, returned with the 503 response 4. Start the startupfilter.disabler bundle at a higher run level, when the system is ready to accept requests. This disables the startupfilter bundle's Filter service, so there's no performance hit once that's done. was (Author: bdelacretaz): Startup filter disabler bundle added in revision 1227218.
