Clearing Physical Files in Use

Hi All,

 

I have a batch program that runs a series of CLRPFM commands.  However,
if someone is looking at one of the open files, I will get a LCKW
message until that person leaves the program.

 

Currently, I have this in my CL program:

 

CLRPFM     FILE(DMDPG_PF)

MONMSG     MSGID(CPF0000)

 

Can someone tell me if there is a way to clear out the physical file
without having to kick the user out first?  If not, what extra code (if
I can) do I need to add to my CL program to force the user out so I can
clear the PF?

 

Thanks!


Brian.
