Question on dsdlockd.config in 11.5.0.2/AIX 7.1

Post by arvind_ds »

Hi Experts,

These are the contents of dsdlockd.config file in our 11.5.0.2/AIX 7.1 environment. The daemon is up and running.

start=1
timer=2700
res=0
log=
recordlocks=0


I tried to search the product documentation, but could not find detailed information on below two.

res=0
recordlocks=0

What is the objective of these two values(res & recordlocks). Currently both are set to default(0) at our end.

Kindly share your input whether these two values should be kept as default(0) or should be changed to some other value. Many thanks !

All I could find was a warning, where "other" refers to the "start" and "timer" settings:
Note: Do not modify the other values of the dslockd.config file unless suggested by IBM.
