Hi,

From some reason outside the scope of this eMail, an application enters
in a deadlock. Ok, this isn't desirable, but it happens. But once it
happens how can we solve it?
AFAIK, I know the following solutions:
1. Log-off all the clients of the application (by closing it) which are
scattered on the network. This implies phone-calls, messages aso.
2. Brutally shut down the server. But this kills also the other
databases attached on it.

How can I resolve this situation by, let's say, shutting down the
database only (I tried this but didn't work).

TIA,

m. th.
