2654.0. "bsubmit giving a lock held error" by AOSG::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Tue Nov 12 1996 15:44

Subj: 	bsubmit giving a lock held error

Hi,
	Please refer to our earlier email with Sub 'bsubmit giving a memory
	fault' from [email protected].

	We found the 'memory fault' was due to the presence of a
	recursive link. We solved this problem by creating the following
	symbolic link
	
lrwxrwxrwx   1 devbld   users         29 Nov  6 11:06 /usr/sde/osf1/build/steelos/link -> /usr/sde/osf1/build/ptos.bl12
	
	We succeeded in doing a bsubmit after this. All subsequent attempts
	to bsubmit have failed.

	The following is a log of the errors we get when try to bsubmit :

	$ bsubmit rm.c
	Enter the defect number this submission applies to:
	steelos-1021-surya


	Outdate files if successful submission? [Y]es, [N]o, [Q]uery
	later]: [Yes] 
	SUBMIT: is temporarily held, by Surya_Prasad.
	If this condition persists for 60 seconds or more
	the logs/lockhold in your backing tree may need to be
	deleted by your ODE administrator.
	Lock file is temporarily unavailable.  Waiting.
		.
		.
		.
	$


	We did not find any logs/lockhold file under our /usr/sde tree.
	I would appreciate your help in this regard.

Thank you
Surya Prasad P.

For starters, the link you refer to needs to point to
/usr/sde/osf1/build/ptbos.bl3 - which is what steel is currently backed by.
You must also have that tree present on your site.

The logs/lockhold would be in your steelos/logs directory.

Subj: 	Re: bsubmit giving a lock held error

Hi,
	We have not SUP'ed PTB bl3 so far. We managed to bsubmit one request
today. This was our first bsubmit after PTB BL3 merge with Steel. I had also 
pointed in my earlier email about the absence of any lock files under
/usr/sde/osf1/build/steelos/logs directory. Do we have any other
alternative to complete the bsubmits? Is it mandatory for us to have a copy of
ptbos.bl3 locally? Anyway, attempts to SUP ptbos.bl3_pool from ZK3 failed when
we tried it now.

Thanks,
Surya

Tom,
  Josh asked me to look into this. Surya Prasad (DEC India) has 
steelos incorrectly linked to ptos.bl12. He should have it linked to
ptbos.bl3.  In order to do this, they need to SUP the ptbos.bl3 tree.

It sounds like DEC India needs to be notified whenever a link like this 
should be changed, so they can SUP the latest backing tree(s). 

However, John F. said that there is still the licensing issue which
you are working with Jim Metsch.

See attached messages.

Please advise..

Thanks,

Thanks,

Sue
