allow geoserver to serve data from a datastore that was not available on geoserver startup
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-2263
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-2263
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Configuration
Environment: All as for as i know
Reporter: Ivan Price
Assignee: Andrea Aime
Priority: Minor
Oracle datastores are appearing as 'not enabled' whenever the geoserver machine is rebooted. The reason for this is that tomcat (i.e. geoserver) is coming up before oracle, and so the initial check tells the impatient geoserver the datastore is not available.
This makes unattended reboots impossible unless I fix the order of services starting.
It would be nice for geoserver to be more tolerant on startup, or perhaps try to enable the datastore when it receives a request for a disabled one. Geoserver does not die if you ask for a layer coming from a datasource that has been turned off since geoserver started, so should that not be the same as asking for one that has never been there at all ?
