Remove unnecessary request made when runtime context is entered.

Description

This PR removes the unnecessary request that is made when the runtime context of the DataWarehouse is entered. The purpose of having it was to assert that a connection could be made to the XDMoD REST API; however, this will almost always occur just before another request is made, so there is no need to test the initial request.
