515.0. "Padlock icon not go away" by OPCO::TSG_SJM (Coming live to you from Rosebery) Mon Dec 12 1994 03:34

    We had an instance today where someone connected to a system, and when
    they disconnected, the padlock icon stayed on top of the previously
    locked system.
    
    You could still reconnect to the system afterwards, but the icon
    wouldn't go away.  In the end we just moved the icon to an used section
    of the screen.
    
    When connecting the system after moving the icon, a new icon is created
    over the connected system, and does disappear after you disconnect.  I
    guess not a major problem, just an inconvenience.

	Steve, Not sure what the problem is. It could be that the 'Disconnect' event was not delivered or a bug in the C3 code. The next time this happens, try the 'Unlock' command on the system popup menu. It hopefully will remove the padlock icon. Cheers, Dave
515.2	will not help...	VELI::KORKKO	Veli K�rkk�, FNO/OMS Delivery, DTN 879-5512	`Mon Dec 12 1994 21:13`	4
	seen this too. Unlock did not help! With so many other things in mind, did not just manage to report it... veli
515.3	More specifically...	OPCO::TSG_TAS	Mr Mass	`Sat Dec 24 1994 09:06`	10
	Seen again I am displaying C3 on my station having set displ/cre/node= on the VAX that PCM is running on. I connect to the console of a node using MB3 and selecting the connect option, yet when I ^E to exit the connection the padlock remains. Otherwise it is as if I had disconnected properly: others can connect, that console is not locked, and noone is shown as locking it... Tony Sherrard

	Tony, Did you manually try the 'unlock' option on the popup menu? It should delete the icon even if there is no-one connected. Dave

	Yes we are seeing this too. The padlocks stay there weather you unlock from the icon or not. Even if you shutdown & startup PCM they still stay locked . Steve
515.6	Problem is still there	LOCH::SOJDA		`Thu Apr 27 1995 20:30`	7
	Any more word on what is causing this and if it will be fixed in V1.6? I am seeing it too and doing an explicit unlock does not fix the problem. Larry
515.7		YOSSAM::PHILIP	And through the square window...	`Thu Apr 27 1995 23:51`	7
	Larry, I will be announcing the V1.6 kit tomorrow, try it, if the problem is still there, we can do something about it. Cheers, Phil
