dsmit-unlock Command

Purpose

Clears the locks on the DSMIT configuration file server.

Syntax

dsmit-unlock

Description

The dsmit-unlock command clears the /usr/share/DSMIT/security/dslock file and resets the /usr/share/DSMIT/security/dslock.ctr file on the DSMIT configuration file server. These lock files reside on the DSMIT configuration file server and control access to the DSMIT configuration files. In the event that DSMIT terminates abnormally, these locks may be left in a state that prevents you from restarting DSMIT. If you get a message such as Cannot acquire lock or Cannot create credentials, you should run the dsmit-unlock command on the DSMIT managing machine.

Security

Access Control: You must be a registered DSMIT administrator to run this command.

Example

To clear the dslock file and reset the dslock.ctr file, enter:

dsmit-unlock
