For specific information on configuring the size of the lock subsystem, see <a href="../ref/lock/max.html">Configuring locking: sizing the system</a>. <p>The DBENV->set_lk_max interface may only be used to configure Berkeley DB before the <a href="../api_c/env_open.html">DBENV->open</a> interface is called. <p>The DBENV->set_lk_max function returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success. <p>The database environment's maximum number of locks may also be set using the environment's <b>DB_CONFIG</b> file. The syntax of the entry in that file is a single line with the string "set_lk_max", one or more whitespace characters, and the number of locks. Because the <b>DB_CONFIG</b> file is read when the database environment is opened, it will silently overrule configuration done before that time. <h1>Errors</h1> <p><dl compact> <p><dt>EINVAL<dd>An invalid flag value or parameter was specified. <p>Called after <a href="../api_c/env_open.html">DBENV->open</a> was called. </dl> <h1>See Also</h1> <a href="../api_c/env_set_lk_conflicts.html">DBENV->set_lk_conflicts</a>, <a href="../api_c/env_set_lk_detect.html">DBENV->set_lk_detect</a>, <a href="../api_c/env_set_lk_max_locks.html">DBENV->set_lk_max_locks</a>, <a href="../api_c/env_set_lk_max_lockers.html">DBENV->set_lk_max_lockers</a>, <a href="../api_c/env_set_lk_max_objects.html">DBENV->set_lk_max_objects</a>, <a href="../api_c/env_set_lk_max.html">DBENV->set_lk_max</a>, <a href="../api_c/lock_detect.html">lock_detect</a>, <a href="../api_c/lock_get.html">lock_get</a>, <a href="../api_c/lock_id.html">lock_id</a>, <a href="../api_c/lock_put.html">lock_put</a>, <a href="../api_c/lock_stat.html">lock_stat</a> and <a href="../api_c/lock_vec.html">lock_vec</a>. </tt> <table><tr><td><br></td><td width="1%"> <a href="../api_c/c_index.html"><img src="../images/api.gif" alt="API"></a><a href="../ref/toc.html"><img src="../images/ref.gif" alt="Ref"></a> </td></tr></table> <p><font size=1><a href="http://www.sleepycat.com">Copyright Sleepycat Software</a></font> </body> </html>
