It should survive a reboot (but no guarantees).  It should fail to mount simultaneously on a second machine (hopefully).  There are some ways to get screwed if you're not diligent about this...

If you're intending to pass the volume back and forth between different computers, I would suggest using a different solution, such as encfs4win, or boxcryptor.
