In our local development environments we use docker-compose to run Elasticsearch and Kibana. We're getting ready to upgrade from 5.6 to 6.3, so my starting point was updating our `docker-compose.yml` file to point to the newer Docker images. However, when I run `docker-compose up` Elasticsearch fails to start with the following error: ```auto Recreating webcrawl_elasticsearch_1 ... done Attaching to webcrawl_elasticsearch_1 elasticsearch_1 | OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: Option UseConcMarkSweepGC was deprecated in version 9.0 and will likely be removed in a future release. elasticsearch_1 | [2018-07-12T16:32:26,826][INFO][o.e.n.Node] [] initializing ... elasticsearch_1 | [2018-07-12T16:32:26,850][WARN][o.e.b.ElasticsearchUncaughtExceptionHandler] [] uncaught exception in thread [main] elasticsearch_1 | org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.StartupException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: failed to obtain node locks, tried [[/usr/share/elasticsearch/data/docker-cluster]] with lock id [0]; maybe these locations are not writable or multiple nodes were started without increasing [node.max_local_storage_nodes] (was [1])?

Solved. Turns out we were using the docker images from [hub.docker.com](http://hub.docker.com) before and the issue was permissions in the disk volume. The solution was to mount the volume in the elasticsearch container but run a shell instead of the default and change the permissions for `/usr/share/elasticsearch/data` ---
