CLEAR_LOCKS(8) Maintenance Commands and Procedures CLEAR_LOCKS(8)

clear_locks - clear locks held on behalf of an NFS client

/usr/sbin/clear_locks [-s] hostname

The clear_locks command removes all file, record, and share locks created by the hostname and held on the current host, regardless of which process created or owns the locks.

This command can be run only by the super-user.

This command should only be used to repair the rare case of a client crashing and failing to clear held locks. Clearing locks held by an active client may cause applications to fail in an unexpected manner.

The following operands are supported:

hostname

name of host server

0

Successful operation.

1
