mirrorlist2 container, makes sure it can process requests and then if
so, restarts mirrorlist1 container with the new pkl data. If not,
mirrorlist1 keeps running with the old data. During this process at
least one (with mirrorlists servers as backup) server is processing
requests so users see no issues.
