Use LIST.READU EVERY to see all READU locks. Two commands for two different things. I dont know of any commands to release READU locks. The MASTER LOCKS command will release the synchronization locks, but not READU. One thing you could do is to MASTER OFF the user. This is not always the best thing. You could walk over to their terminal and back them out of what they are doing. You could also make use of TANDEM to take control of the terminal and do the same thing (if you dont like walking). If it is a deadlock, shown by LIST.READU EVERY, I always use the admin menu, deadlock administration to take care of it.

When I executed LIST.LOCKS at universe prompt, no locks were shown but when I executed LIST.READU, 7 records were displayed as locked. I tried to CLEAR all the locks but was not able to do that. Can someone tell me how to release the locks which are displayed in LIST.READU output? Thanks in advance.
