> Lockfiles are not being created for datanode storage directories. Due to a
> mixup, we are initializing the StorageDirectory class with shared=true (an
> option which was only intended for NFS directories used to implement NameNode
> HA). Setting shared=true disables lockfile generation and prints a log
> message like this:
> {code}
> 2015-05-22 11:45:16,367 INFO common.Storage (Storage.java:lock(675)) -
> Locking is disabled for
> /home/cmccabe/hadoop2/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/target/
> test/data/dfs/data/data5/current/BP-122766180-127.0.0.1-1432320314834
> {code}
> Without lock files, we could accidentally spawn two datanode processes using
> the same directories without realizing it.
