-------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a major problem when migrating to Airfllow. It's impossible to backfill 
manually DAGs and not manage them manually.
This bug degrades the value of airflow down to a CRON with a nice UI. What's 
the point of a workflow management tool then?

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-764
>             Project: Apache Airflow
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: core, executor
>    Affects Versions: Airflow 1.7.1.3
>         Environment: debian linux, mysql with localexecutor
>            Reporter: Jeffrey Enns
>         Attachments: test_dag.py, test_dag_screen.png, test_job.sh, 
> trigger_two.sh
>
>
> Given the following configuration:
> ```
> [core]
> executor = LocalExecutor
> max_active_runs_per_dag = 1
> parallelism = 20
> dag_concurrency = 1
> ```
> Even with `max_active_runs_per_dag=1`, it is possible to cause two (or more) 
> DAG runs to run in parallel by triggering the runs manually within a few 
> seconds/milliseconds of one another. Task Instances from the distinct DAG 
> runs will show as active in the “Task Instances” web view at the same time.
> I only looked at the scheduler code briefly, but it looked as if a race 
> condition would be possible for manually triggered DAGs that could lead to 
> this behaviour.
> I’ve attached a test DAG and two shell scripts I used to reliably reproduce 
> this behaviour. Put `test_dag.py` and `test_job.sh` in the DAGs folder, and 
> then run `trigger_two.sh` to reproduce the bug. 
> Also attached is a screenshot showing DAG runs (for the dag ‘race_dag’) 
> running in parallel after following the steps described immediately above 
> (note the execution date, start date, and end date for each TI).
