Have been getting the following error on start:  
failed to obtain node locks, tried [/usr/share/elasticsearch/data]; maybe these locations are not writable or multiple nodes were started on the same data path?

I am runing it on unraid, owner to fodler has been set to root and nobody.  
permissions set on fodler set to read/write for all

are you able to help me with this?
