lckclnt(8)                          CLIX                          lckclnt(8)



  NAME

    lckclnt - Creates lock manager client handles

  SYNOPSIS

    lckclnt [nclienthandles]

  DESCRIPTION

    The lckclnt command allocates connectionless transport endpoints which are
    used to create client handles.  Lock manager client programs obtain a
    client handle for the duration of an RPC operation.

    The nclienthandles parameter is the number of client handles allocated.
    This number limits the number of lock manager client operations that can
    be run concurrently, and should be based on the load expected on the
    client.  If additional client handles are required, more lckclnt processes
    may be started.  The number of client handles available to lock manager
    client programs is the sum of the number of client handles allocated by
    each lckclnt program.  Killing a lckclnt process will reduce the available
    number of client handles by the amount that was initially allocated by
    that process.

  EXAMPLES

    To allocate 4 client handles, enter the following:

    lckclnt 4


  FILES

    /dev/udp   UDP device node

  EXIT VALUES

    If successful, lckclnt exits with a 0.  Otherwise, it exits with a -1.
