ERROR on API Manager 2.0.0 gateway worker on start-up

The following ERROR is logged on the gateway worker nodes on start-up.

2016-08-23 12:32:42,344 [-] [Timer-5] ERROR KeyTemplateRetriever Exception when retrieving throttling data from remote endpoint

Despite the error the gateway worker nodes startup and the environment can be used to successfully invoke a sample API.

All the apim nodes, bar the traffic manager, however report these warnings

2016-08-22 16:40:56,652 [-] [Timer-5]  WARN KeyTemplateRetriever Failed retrieving throttling data from remote endpoint: Connection refused. Retrying after 15 seconds...

I encountered the issue recently and the issue was throttle#data#v1.war (repository/deployment/server/webapps/throttle#data#v1.war) hasn't been deployed at the time worker starts up. If you have a distributed AM 2.0 deployment make sure Keymanager is up and throttle#data#v1.war is deployed in keymanager before worker srartup..

If you disable Advanced Throttling in api-manager.xml like below, that error will go away. If you enable that, it requires a key manager node.

<EnableAdvanceThrottling>false</EnableAdvanceThrottling>
