Lockstat Command Output
The key items to examine in lockstat output are the waiting statistics, including the following:
• Lock wait in the Locking System Summary
• Deadlock in the Locking System Summary
• Wait in the Locks by Lock List
• Status WAIT in the Locks by Lock List
Note: The lockstat command gives detailed statistics on all locking activity in the installation, so if there is much activity, the quantity of output will be considerable.
