> The {{KvStateServerImpl}} can currently prevent the {{TaskExecutor}} from starting. 
> Currently, the QS server starts per default on port {{9067}}. If this port is not free, then it fails and stops the whole initialization of the {{TaskExecutor}}. I think the QS server should not stop the {{TaskExecutor}} from starting.
> We should at least change the default port to {{0}} to avoid port conflicts. However, this will break all setups which don't explicitly set the QS port because now it either needs to be setup or extracted from the logs.
> Additionally, we should think about whether a QS server startup failure should lead to a {{TaskExecutor}} failure or simply be logged. Both approaches have pros and cons. Currently, a failing QS server will also affect users which don't want to use QS. If we tolerate failures in the QS server, then a user who wants to use QS might run into problems with state not being reachable.
