I would expect several problems related to file locking on Windows. I can't predict the details, but I suspect that most multi Jenkins environments run Linux rather than Windows.
I would expect a few problems when attempting to upgrade such a configuration, since the Windows installer does not directly support multi Jenkins on a single machine. Is it really worth the likely problems to do this on one machine rather than multiple machines?
