How to delete lock files after cell is closed?

Kabal

How can I do it?

setenv DD_DONT_DO_OS_LOCKS

that does not help, I am not sure if there is a specific way to tell cadence not to  leave lock files after the cell (no matter which cell) has been closed?

  • Provided that the machine which had the crash has since had virtuoso run on it again (or the "clsbd" deamon is started directly), it shouldn't be necessary to use clsAdminTool. Running virtuoso would cause clsbd to start, and then if virtuoso on another machine (or the same machine) finds the file is locked, it can consult with the clsbd on the machine with the lock to see if the process that was locking the file is still running or not. If it's not still running, the lock can safely be reclaimed.

    clsAdminTool (in general) should only be needed when there is a lock and the machine is no longer accessible (i.e. if it's still powered down) - or if clsbd can't be started for some reason (not sure why).
