QUESTION: 26

When should you use the force-unlock command?

You see a status message that you cannot acquire the lock
You have a high priority change
Automatic unlocking failed
Your apply failed due to a state lock

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Be very careful with this command. If you unlock the state when someone else is holding the lock it could cause multiple writers. Force unlock should only be used to unlock your own lock in the situation where automatic unlocking failed.
