How To Use The dsunlock Command

Syntax: dsunlock [options] handle

The command dsunlock allows the administrator to unlock objects. Use a space to separate multiple object handles.

dsunlock

The dsunlock command requires a DocuShare file handle (such as Document-23) as the sole argument.

The command unlocks the specified DocuShare file object. If the handle cannot be found in the DocuShare database or if the handle does not refer to a DocuShare file object, the command will return a message that the handle cannot be found and then exits with a -1 status. Unlocking a file that is not locked, does not generate an error.

Options for dsunlock

-h Help. Display command help text.

-l Level. Write the specified level (debug, trace, info, warn, error, fatal) message to the log file.

-q Quiet. Run the command in quiet mode. Suppresses all informational messages and user yes/no prompts. Assume Yes to all prompts and proceed at your own risk.

-u User. Run the command as the specified user. Requires a user handle as an argument. By default, all commands run as the admin user, which gives them unrestricted rights and makes admin the author of any edit operations performed by the command. For example, specifying -u User-12 causes the command to run as User-12 instead of admin.
