gds_lock_print core dumps

Abstract: gds_lock_print core dumps

Problem: Sometimes, my system core dumps while I am doing a gds_lock_print. Do you know what could be causing this? Is it a bug? Solution: Note: This document applies to InterBase 3.X. This problem was noticed frequently with AIX machines running InterBase 3.3. This behavior can occur if the gds_lock_print takes a while and other processes are updating to the lock table. gds_lock_print may establish pointers early on in the process and other processes may change the lock manager before the gds_lock_print is finished, thus making the pointers invalid. One solution to this issue is to not allow other users on the system while you are doing a gds_lock_print.
