/**
* Represents a distribution locator server that provides discovery information to members and
* clients of a GemFire distributed system. In most GemFire distributed cache architectures,
* distribution locators are run in their own process. A stand-alone locator process is managed
* using gfsh command line utility.
*
* The stand-alone locator configuration provides high-availability of membership information.
*
*
*
* This class allows a GemFire application VM to host a distribution locator. Such a configuration
* minimizes the number of processes that are required to run GemFire. However, hosting distribution
* locators is not generally recommended because if the application VM exits it would not be
* possible for new applications to connect to the distributed system until it is restarted.
*
*
* Locators persist membership information in a locatorXXXview.dat file. This file is used to
* recover information about the cluster when a locator starts if there are no other currently
* running locators. It allows the restarted locator to rejoin the cluster.
*
*
* NOTE: In this release of the product locators log membership views and cache server status
* in a locatorXXXviews.log file, where XXX is the locator's port. This is a rolling log capped in
* size at 5mb. In order to log cache server status the locator will enable server-location, so the
* locator must be started with a DistributedSystem or be started so that it creates a
* DistributedSystem. This means that it is not possible in this release to use APIs to start a
* locator and then start a DistributedSystem.
