+# BEFORE running this script, kill off and otherwise prevent any

+#
+# This means that if you are running cluster.pl from /etc/inittab or using
+# some other means of dealing with automatically restarting cluster.pl - 
+# MAKE SURE that you disable them.
+#
+# PLEASE make sure that no cluster.pl process is running whilst
