Obviously you want to fix this the root cause, but you can modify any bash
script to disallow concurrent calls using flock.
For example if you opened up two terminals and tried to run the script
below in each, the second would exit if called before the 20 second time
limit is up.
#!/bin/bash
# prevent processes from operating concurrently.
# Variable fd represents a numeric file descriptor assigned by bash
# this fails to lock if running from an NFS shared script, probably a good
thing
#
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46137583/prevent-other-terminals-from-running-a-script-while-another-terminal-is-using-it
exec {fd}< $0
if ! flock -n $fd
then
echo "there can be only one"
exit 1
fi
echo "Long running process starts."
sleep 20
