    Description:
    I'm trying to index abc01 and it is stuck. This is the message that I get on the end of the log of p_manage_01:

    Z39_HOST=aleph1
    HOSTTYPE=x86_64-linux
    ORA_HOST=aleph1
    Library ABC01 was already locked
    Library ABC01 was already locked
    Wrote Z100 record with rec-key: 000000016
    Load: /exlibris/aleph/u20_1/alephe/tab/tab100
    <etc.>

    Resolution:
    The "Library xxx was already locked" message indicates that some previous job (possibly a previous failed run of p_manage_01?) had left abc01 locked.

    You need to "dlib abc01", do util c/6 ("Unlock library"), and then resubmit the job.
