Hi
basically it is telling you that table(file) BSERV00003 in library BEAMISPROD is in use.
If you are trying to update a record in the table then that record is locked by another job/user. Please note that the AS/400 automatically locs records when a row is accessed for update.
If it was trying to access a record for enquiry then the actual table is in use - this could be caused by a back-up etc..
You can check for a general lock on the table by using the
wrkobjlck BEAMISPROD/BSERV00003 *file
command.
you can use f6 to show all jobs that are using the file, you can then check out which one has either the row or table lock.
