Re: ISAM error: out of locks

Hi, I'm assuming the UNIX DB server is OnLine and the answer is OnLine related. However, the other Informix DB server's should have the same concept in them. There is the LOCKS field in the onconfig file that get set during DB initialization. This field allows the dbadmin to set the maximum number of locks that the database can allow. Another place for setting the same field (LOCKS - max number of locks) is in the onmonitor utility, parameters/Shared-Memory screen. this screen is accessible only to the dba. Informix OnLine needs to be in an quiescent/off-line mode to make these changes.
