Just the other day, we had a PID that is 7 digits long. So while using DataStage Command Language (6.0), not only does the listing of jobs (LIST.READU) list the last 5 digits, the command to list all processes (DS.TOOLS, 5, 1) would only show the last 6 digits!
Sheesh! Give me the full number so I can plunder the evil tyrants laying siege on my jobs! ~

Just wait, sometimes a locked item won't have an underlying PID. So, list_readu shows you the lock, but you can't release by PID.
That's why I keep posting to unlock by USERNO, because every lock always has a USERNO. Check it out.

That feature requires root to run, while the DS.TOOLS features can be run with dsadm in the system group. Maybe it's a configuration issue that can be addressed by System Administrator for Tru64...kcbland wrote:That's why I keep posting to unlock by USERNO, because every lock always has a USERNO.

Another self-created rule: Do not test this feature on your own machine running NT 4.0. Had to do a reboot for the first time in a couple months cuz Director and Designer went crazy.

Here's a trick on Unix:
Go to the DS bin directory and copy the executable list_readu into an executable called unlock (works the same on NT, except it's list_readu.exe and unlock.exe). Now, you can execute list_readu from the unix command line to list locks, and you can release from the unix command line using unlock. Now, just have dsadm and/or any other userids setup in sudo to execute unlock. Problem solved. On Solaris 2.8+, you can use user roles.
