Hello

I run code in SAS and save the resulted data set in a permanent library.

I receive an error

ERROR: A lock is not available for R_R.PANEL_CS_ALL_833_703_860.DATA.
ERROR: Lock held by process 31216.

How can I know-

Who (Which user/person) using this data set that caused my program to fail?

With the process id you can check in OS who/what process it is.
