Let me preface this by saying that I\'m not using Spring Cloud Config directly, it is transitive via Spring Cloud Hystrix starter.
When only using @EnableHystr
Regarding the discovery service followup (looks like no other posts on that), setting spring.cloud.config.discovery.enabled: false worked for me, but only if it was set in bootstrap(yml/properties) and if I removed the @EnableDiscoveryClient annotation from my Application class. I guess this means one cannot use that annotation for any service where discovery will not be used at times.
