Yoav, I read up on the autoDeploy in the docs. I'm not clear on something. If I say 'auto'Deploy equals false, then that implies what? "manual" deploy? The docs detail what happens when autoDeploy is true, but not what happens when it's false. Setting it false would imply all the things that are described here: host.html#Automatic%20Application%20Deployment would _not_ happen. Except somehow the contexts need to get deployed. So if I set autoDeploy false, who does the deployment? I'm looking at your recommendation below, to be able to specify startup order. The reason is not a dependency. Rather, we have a number of webapps (about 15) that we want started up and ready, before the container attempts to start a single webapp that takes about 30 seconds to 'complete its startup'. While we're waiting for this one to finish, our other ones are not available, and their startup time is 'vanishingly small'. As it happens, the 15 webapps are the ones my company makes money with, and the 1 that takes so d**n long is a issue tracker, for internal use only.
