Review comment:
       >I hope if we encounter uncaughtException here, we want to retry the 
loop again.
   
   Yes, we want to keep trying until we succeed.
   
   > If so, shall we also add startupOngoing.set(true); here explicitely? Just 
in case if it is set to false in initialize()?
   
   The only cases `startupOngoing` would had been set to `false` in  
`initialize` is if it completes fine without any uncaught exception, so adding 
it here would be redundant.
