Hi Jeremy, shouldn't the application servers start independently of the nodeagent?

Yes, the node agent and application servers are started independently. However, if the node is federated into the dmgr, then the node agent will need to be started to establish communication between the dmgr and node. I have cleaned up this article for clarity.
