解决不能删除arcsde数据源的featureclass和table的方法

Question: # 15

Why do I receive the error: "Failed to delete selected object(s)" when trying to delete an ArcSDE table or feature class in ArcCatalog?

Software: ArcCatalog
Version: 8.3
Platform:


Cause:

The full error message received is:

Failed to delete selected objects(s)
Lock request conflicts with an established lock
[Locked by database user: 'username' on machine: 'MACHINENAME']

Even though there is no connection to ArcSDE by the username from MACHINENAME you could receive this error message if there is a hung connection to ArcSDE that was not terminated correctly.

 

Answer:

Use the sdemon -o info -I users command to determine the connection that is causing the error message:

C:\>sdemon -o info -I users

Find the PID that corresponds to the username and MACHINENAME that is causing the error message. Use the sdemon -o kill -t pid command to terminate the hung connection:

C:\>sdemon -o kill -t 1219
