> Currently, when there is an existing directory dirA, if dirA fails for some reason, RaftServer will try to initialize another directory dirB from the list specified in the configuration properties. Suppose dirB can be initialized successfully. The server can start at that time. However, when the server restarts, it may find dirA and dirB exist at the same time and then throw an exception. It is because the server cannot decide which one to use.
