I think even in 2.1, additional instances would shut down after a minute of idle time.
In v8 (or maybe v7), you got the option to start them all at startup.
In v9 you got the option to create a workload management profile, that among other things includes additional instances, and apply these administratively after deployment (and also programmatically through the REST api).
