Hi , I’ve just completed installing ADABAS and Natural. I decided to run ADASAV. It failed with B37 full dataset. I increased the allocation and re-submitted. I got the following.

[b]ERROR-089, Utility not permitted to run

```
       Another utility has exclusive database control.           
                                                                 
       The following table shows the current contents of         
       the Utility Communications Block. One of the jobs         
       displayed below has exclusive database control.           
                                                                 
       Wait until that job has ended and retry this function. [/b]

```

Question , how can I remove the exclusive control and rerun ? Is there a way ti display which uttility/user has the exclusive control ? and then remove it. I’ve searcheed all the commands and othr utilities and not found anything. Many thanks in advance
