Command to start multiple nodes on one machine with one port number
>PORT=3001 DEBUG="express:* monk:*" pm2 start app.js --name noderest1 -i max 
-i max will be use as much CPU resource as we can

Command to start multiple nodes on one machine with one port number
>PORT=3001 DEBUG="express:* monk:*" pm2 start app.js --name noderest1 -i 4
