Following on to the original point that I think prompted this thread was
the introduction of PCL6 by HP for their printers. As in the subject
heading it was about printing from *nix. In my case AIX, but the same
will apply to Linux and any other flavour ox *nix.
We don't have Windows printer
Hey all,
Can someone please help me understand the differences between group
locks and record locks? Also are high user numbers (Userno below)
indicative of a phantom process?
*Active Record Locks:
Device Inode Netnode Userno Lmode Pid Login Id Item-ID.

To take the first part of your question:
The lock table is used for application locks like READU and READL locks, and
also for synchronisation locks.
The RD and WR locks are synchronisation locks that control access to a group
in a file during a read or write operation. these should be
We traditionally coded our programs to use PCL5 for fonts, position and tray
selection. Over the pass few years of working thru these types of issues
(not just pcl5/pcl6); the only long term answer we have come up with is to
get out of the game. We started reviewing and/or using tools like
Hi Doug,
Record locks protect your data records. Group locks protect the internal
pointers within the file.
A user program cannot directly get or release group locks but they come and
go automatically under the covers.
Group locks are of three types:
WR (write): very much like a READU,

Thanks for your replies.

We used to have a xref file to hold a list of I-nodes and the file name.
As Brain rightly states on a *nix system you can use a ls -ip | sort -k 1,1n
command or ls -ip | sort +0 -1 -n
For windows we would run the Hamilton C shell so we could shell out and perform

Thanks for the response! I was more interested in matching a user to a
lock than the file (I have a program that I can call that will return
the file name if you pass it a inode), what I was hoping for was a
better way of figuring out the user, instead of doing the following:

But I am still a little confused on what would set a group
lock (I understand the record locks) and why a group lock
would need to be set and does it lock the entire file?
A group in a file contains pointers between records and pointers to overflow
groups. So the group lock is there
Thanks!

One other question (not related to locking). I always think it's polite
to say thanks after getting good info from users on this list but I also
hate to increase email volume with a reply of thanks.
So is it better to not reply when you have the info you need (but assume

I don't know if this is very elegant, but it matches up the record lock with
a user name:
0020 LOOP
0021 LOOP.COUNTER += 1
0022 *DISPLAY LOOP.COUNTER
0023 IF LOOP.COUNTER GT 100 THEN EXIT
0024 TRY.AGAIN =
0025 READVU FIELD1 FROM VOC.FILE,VOCLIB,1
Doug,
As Brian mentioned, a group lock is asserted to maintain integrity of the
group while the group is being updated, as the order of the items within
group may change due to deletes and changes.
Here is generic routine I use to perform a readu and resolve who has the
record locked - and send

Trying to extract an XML file and I want to use the BY_NAME clause in the
extraction map so I can load the data into different attributes (not in
order) but it keeps failing. We're on Universe 10.2.4
Is this feature not supported?
Any help would be appreciated.
