No locks available.

Hi,

Few days ago I met below issue:

Failed to lock: a.log. No locks available.

the a.log is in present directory. I asked on other list which is the
software related issue.

was suggested to move the a.log to another directory and moved back to continue.

but not work.

Can someone give me some suggestions about how to check.

$ cd /var/lock
$ ls
dmraid  lvm  rpm  subsys  xemacs
$ mount
/dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
sunrpc on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw)
honeydewlocal:/vol/hpc_vol/HomeHPC on /home type nfs
(rw,rsize=32k,wsize=32k,intr,hard,tcp,addr=192.168.5.83)

Thanks,
