I don't think so. Why do you want to?

Can your health check wait for the optimize step to complete?

Someone else just mentioned checking Kibana readiness with

`curl http://${KIBANA_HOST}/api/status | jq '.status.overall.state'`

Kibana only has to do this optimize once initially, and then only when configuration changes. Are you automatically spinning up Kibana instances on demand?
