Explain using the NetWare Btrieve NLM v6.0, BTRMON and NDBMON show files as opened by a different user than the one that originally opened the files and I cant back up or close those files. Why does this happen and what is the solution?

Answer:

- When Netware time restrictions are in force and any user's connection to NetWare is terminated, the Btrieve files are remain open to that connection.

- If a new uses logs in and uses the same connection ID, the Monitor utilities will show all the files opened by new user.

- All these files have opened by Btrieve

- Back up can be taken when they are not in Continuous Operations Mode.

- As the necessary Btrieve Position blocks are not available, the user can not access these files.

- The application should perform an explicit Btrieve Reset Operation in order to avoid leaving files open or the work station should reboot before NetWare time restrictions take effect.
