Comment 53 for bug 1640518

Arron, re #50, yes, you can run as may copies as you want simultaneously, as long as:

1) The --dbpathPrefix argument points to distinct paths. So resmoke.py ... --dbpathPrefix=/var/tmp/run1 and resmoke.py ... --dbpathPrefix=/var/tmp/run2, etc.

2) You specify disjoint "port ranges" with the --basePort argument to resmoke.py. I don't happen to know how deep in to each port range one instance of the test needs to go, so I usually separate them by 10k but that is probably way too generous. I'll bet 2k is sufficient.

Does that answer your question?
