RT thread lock by Logwriter program

Help! I have an RT (redo thread) lock I cannot remove from the log writer. We were running an optimize program that builds a number of indexes and ran out of space in the index table space. We added another data file which became active but the lock does not go away. We cannot kill the lock because it is a server process but cannot run any journal postings since this is an exclusive lock. Any suggestions? Received on Wed Jul 23 1997 - 00:00:00 CDT
