Procedure for System Administrators

Check lock management.
The lock table may be too small. The maximum number of locks in the lock
table is based an upper limit set using a profile parameter. The
enque/table_size parameter determines the size of the lock table in KB.
You can determine the maximum number and the current number of entries
using SM12 / Extras / Statistics.
Problems with the lock administration are usually caused by:
Communication problems (network). Check the network.
Problems with the message server. Check whether the message server is
running (process msg_server or ms.sap<(><<)>sapsystemname>).
Problems with the enqueue server. Check the following settings:
An application server with enqueue functionality (compare SM51) is
running that has an identical name to parameter rdisp/enqname in profile
DEFAULT.PFL (case is also identical).
The parameter rdisp/myname is set correctly.
The number of enqueue work processes (rdisp/wp_no_enq) is at least 1.
Configuration of other application servers. Rdisp/enqname and
rdisp/mshost must be set on the enqueue server or message server on the
other instances.
