It may be better to move the startup code to a ServletContextListener.
When a ServletContextLister fails on startup - then the webapp is
unavailable.
When the webapp is unavailable - any HTTP based monitoring tool would
pick that up (due the error page returned)

OMG I'm going to vomit. At least you could have used System.exit().
Please, everyone, never do anything like this.

Thanks for the input. Something I forgot to mention. My CTO built a
custom App in java. That's why we need tomcat. I believe he did all
his programming

I'm sure a context could fail to start because of bad code. Even seen
it happen once or twice.
The whole container? I'll say possible, but the code would have to do
some really terrible things. I can't see it happening by accident unless
you call System.exit()
