Just before our Data Centre move, I consolidated most of our servers using virtualization technology, using P2V most of our servers were virtualised successfully. Except during this process I experienced 1 or 2 servers having a lock file issues.
When I started the VM on the ESX host and got an error message of: “Unable to access a file since it is locked”. After some investigation on the VMware community forums and so on, I found two solutions and I wanted to post them on my blog for my own future reference but also for all you out there for whom it might be helpful to.
