Hey - great thanks especially to you Peter for your whole work on
**tor-instance-create**

"top" and syslog and even atlas let me come to the conclusion that I
have two running instances now :-)

Still open:

"arm -i 9052" - is asking for a Controller password while I have a
HashedControlPassword in place ?

How to best separate the tor log files from both instances?
