There can be only one node running at a time on a given machine.

Notes​

lockfile​

Upon creation, nodes populate a lockfile at DATA_DIR/pid.lock containing their PId (process id).

concurrency​

Prior to node creation, if a lockfile exists, the existing lock holder will be liveness tested.

Only in the event the existing lock holder is dead will creation of a new node occur.
