I have an application manifest with five stateless services defined. I have multiple Application Parameters files, one per environment, to change the number of instances for each service. For one of the environments, I don't want two specific services to run at all (zero instances) but SF doesn't accept 0 instance parameter. How can I achieve that?
The best way to achieve this would be to stop using default services and instead use a script to start the required services in the appropriate environments.
