NodeStorageLease
The lock-file StorageLease of Node: an exclusively created lock file holding the owner’s pid and host. A lock left
by a process that no longer runs on this host is taken over, so a crash never needs manual cleanup.
Since v0.0.0
lockFile
Section titled “lockFile”A lock-file lease: acquire(path) creates the file path (its directory must exist) holding this process’s pid and
host, and removes it on release. An existing lock whose process is gone (same host, pid not running) or that is
unreadable is stale and taken over; any other existing lock fails with StorageLeaseHeld, including one held by
this process.
