Stork Tool is wrong described as optional in the doc.
The issue was found during sanity checks for the 1.0 release.
Source: #645 (comment 253014)
In the Stork Tool section of our ARM we have this text: "To initialize the database directly, the Stork Tool must be built and used to initialize and upgrade the database to the latest schema. However, this is optional, as the database migration is triggered automatically upon server startup."
In fact, the rake install_server builds and installs the tool. So, there is no optionality.
