On an IBM i server, upgrades to your Assure UI portal product will fail if there is a lock on a file. Locks are often caused by users who have not logged out of the portal correctly by clicking the Log Out button in the interface.

To remove locks on files, do one of the following:

  • Log out of the Assure UI portal by clicking Log Out.

  • End the Assure UI server by entering the following on a command line:

VSIOO1LIB/ENDVSISVR
Note: Note:Ending the Assure UI server logs everyone out.
  • End the job that contains the file locks by doing the following:

a.On a command line, enter the following:

WRKOBJLCK OBJ(install_name/file_name) OBJTYPE(*FILE)

b.Next to the job you want to end, enter 4 (End job).
