This screen identifies the sessions in the lock queue for
a particular table, page, or row.
To invoke the Lock Object screen, use the o command from the Lock
subsystem or the /loc o command from other subsystems.
By default, the LOCKOBJECT variable is set to ALL. Therefore,
by default, the LOCK OBJECT screen
displays all the lock objects that qualify under
the LOCKFILTER and LOCKTABFILTER variables.
If LOCKOBJECT is set to OFF, you must specify a lock
or ALL when you invoke the Lock Object screen.
For example, to view information about all the qualified locks,
you can enter
SQLMONITOR {{OVERVIEW}} => /loc o ALL
|
To view information about a single lock on a table,
you must provide the table name:
SQLMONITOR {{OVERVIEW}} => /loc o PurchDB.Parts
|
If the lock is on a page or row, you must
provide the table name and the page or row id,
separating the two fields with a slash:
SQLMONITOR {{OVERVIEW}} => /loc o PurchDB.Parts/0:1:5:28
SQLMONITOR {{OVERVIEW}} => /loc o PurchDB.Parts/0 1 5 28
|
As shown in the last two examples, you can use either spaces or
colons to delimit the numbers in the page or row id.

Display Conventions |

the fields are in inverse video and underlined.
The absence of inverse video and underlining indicates that
the lock has been granted.
