another advfs command is claiming exclusive use of the domain

I had a defragment die and now the advfs domain is left in a locked state ... how can I
unlock it ??

Thanks ... Charles

Charles,

What do you mean by 'defragment die' and 'left in a locked state'? We once had the defragment utility get stuck in an uninterruptible state and it prevented our backup scripts from creating AdvFS clones. Is your situation similar? Our only solution was to reboot.

defragment hung and ulltimatley timed out

it says that another advfs command has it locked ... it does appear that we will have to reboot

Are you sure that no other AdvFS command (like defragment, balance etc) are currently running?

If so, you could delete the lock file "/etc/fdmns/.advfslock_"

Example: rm /etc/fdmns/.advfslock_usr_domain

This should let the command work again.
