Elasticsearch dead but subsys locked

I have a cluster of 2 elasticsearch instance, when I restarted one of the
nodes I am getting the error "elasticsearch dead but subsys locked" . What
could be causing this.?
I am getting the same error for both the nodes.?

Thank you,
Shriyansh

it means that there is a lock file exist in subsys folder

GO to :

cd /var/lock/subsys or where you kept subsys folder
delete elasticsearch file
rm elasticsearch
stop the elasticsearch
and start the elasticsearch
