Job get locked

Hi
I've a problem regarding job locking. A job has been locked and it's showing "It's been used by another user". When i tried to release it from director, the PID is showing "0" and it does not allow to "logout" or "logout all". Is there any other way to release that job?

P.S. ---> the job is surely not being used by anyone else.

Thanks

Hi,

In director,

step 1 :

job -> cleanup resource -> (in job resources dialog) Locks -> show all-> itemid (try to check for that job name and note pid)

step 2:

(in job resources dialog) processes -> show all -> select the PID of step 1 -> select logout.

I think you do not have access to logout the jobs.You can kill the process in unix box by taking the PID of that particular job.

killing the unix process will not help. ask your datastage admin to unlock it
