No locks available error from CCRC on Red Hat Linux

Problem
This technote describes a problem starting the IBM® Rational® ClearCase® Remote Client (CCRC) on Redhat® Linux™, along with instructions to solve the problem.
 
Cause
Attempts to start CCRC (stand-alone application) on Red Hat Linux results in the following error:

    An error has occurred.  See the log file               
    /.eclipse/configuration/.log

Upon review of the log, the following message related to the error states:

    "/ /.eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.manager/.fileTableLock": "No locks available".

This problem relates to one of two problems:
  1. The file system is not enabled to properly handle file locking. This problem can be the result of the statd (network status monitor) and lockd (network lock daemon) daemons being stopped on the machine that CCRC is installed on.
  2. An unsupported version of Java Runtime Environment may be in use on the CCRC host.
 
Solution
One of the foloowing solutions will resolve your issue:
  1. Make sure lockd and statd are started on the machine that the ClearCase Remote Client is installed on. Refer to the appropriate man pages on lockd and statd for more information.
  2. Review technote 1181478 for more information about the supported JRE versions for use with ClearCase.
