SYBASE ASE: The 'lockf' call failed for database/archive device while working on stripe device with error number 37 (No locks available)
<p>I'm trying to do a sybase database dump to a NFS location but encounters the following error below</p>

<pre><code>1&gt; use master
2&gt; go
1&gt; dump database FIP to '/ddbackup/FIP/dump/test3.dmp'
2&gt; stripe on '/ddbackup/FIP/dump/test3.dmp.S1.dmp'
3&gt; stripe on '/ddbackup/FIP/dump/test3.dmp.S2.dmp' with compression=100
4&gt; go

<p>Things I tried to resolve the issue:</p>

<ul>
<li>Tried to database dump without stripe on</li>
<li>Restart the nfslock service</li>
<li>Dump database to a different FS - WORKING. So I guess I only have
issues with the NFS</li>
<li>Restart BS</li>
</ul>

<p>Appreciate your help on this. Thanks</p>
