You can break an advisory lock with the armmgr command. I believe the syntax is:

armmgr -b

Then you should be able to apply your changes.

curt,

when i try this i get the following:

# ./armmgr -b va7400-6

Login failed, you are not authorized to access this system.
#
The login Administrator password is different than the security password autoraid so i think this might be a problem.

what do you think ?\

Sounds like you need to add your username to the security database. I don't have my notes, but look in the CommandView install Guide on the "secadmin" command.
