Description

Describe the solution you'd like
Once everything is downloaded with an internet connection it would be nice to be able to run it in a closed environment without an external connection.

Additional context
Currently when trying to run it without a connection the rest-api dies since the scheduler checks for updates to the collection and when it fails it throws an unhandled exception which kills the docker.

Research direction

Start by tracing the REST API scheduler's collection-update check and the exception path triggered when no external connection is available. Review how the Docker deployment stays running after that failure. Done means a previously downloaded collection can run in a closed environment without the REST API or Docker process being killed.
