Login to Datasatage Administrator
Go to Properties ->go to command
type LIST.READU
You will find the PID(inode) along with job name in tabular format.Find the job which is locked
then type
UNLOCK INODE (Inode no xxxxxx) ALL


Other Option.

In version 8 the better mechanism is to disconnect the session using Web Console for Information Server. When you open the job you get a dialog showing the owner of the lock. That's the session ID that you need to disconnect.

Thanks Ray !!

Some time i have seen that if your job is locked by ABC user and using Admin ID if i login to Web Console i don;t find User ID ABC's session ID in console. Well in this case You have to Unlock From Admin Command prompt or from Xmeta Database.
