Troubleshooting
Problem
Attempts to run fs_check reports an archive is "locked by:username" in IBM Rational Synergy
Symptom
When you run fs_check you may get an error similar to the following:
RCS file: /dbase/path/name/st_root/archive/source/ascii/ccm_rcs/?/?/file.ext,v
Working file: file.ext
head: 1.114
branch:
locks: strict
fontain: 1.114
access list:
symbolic names:
keyword substitution: kv
total revisions: 92; selected revisions: 92
description:
----------------------------
revision 1.114 locked by: username;
date: 2000/04/26 15:10:10; author: username; state: Exp; lines: +11815 -7718

----------------------------
Note the “locked by: username" text above
Cause
This is where the RCS archive is locked by a user (named “username” in this example), and so it may not be updated.
Resolving The Problem
- Confirm if user is updating object.
It may be that this user is currently updating the archive, so the first thing to do is to wait and check with this user to see they are still running a session. If no session is running for “username”, then you can unlock the file per step 2
- Unlock the archive file:
% $CCM_HOME/bin/util/ccm_grcs –u /dbase/path/name/st_root/archive/source/ascii/ccm_rcs/?/?/file.ext,v
(substituting the full path to the archive with the one from the log file above).
- Run “ccm fs_check” against the versions of this object to verify that it has no additional errors or warnings.
