Hi Kiran,
1. To lock or unlock a client only in an in R/3 System, run the following functions via tcode SE37:
1. SSCR_LOCK_CLIENT
2. SSCR_UNLOCK_CLIENT
Once we run these functions with a client as input, that client will be locked/unlocked. Actually this function set flag '' Client is locked temporarily for client copy" in client maintenance menu. And the client will be available for users DDIC and SAP*. If you try to login in that client as any user, system gives message that ' Client locked temporarily'.
Procedure to unlock the client
     1. Goto SE37
     2. Specify function module as SSCR_UNLOCK_CLIENT
     3. Click on icon Single test or F8.
     4. Specify the client which you want to lock and click on execute(F8).
2. If all the users are locked, they can be unlocked by
a) GO to command prompt type tp unlocksys <SID> pf=//usr/sap/trans/bin/TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.pfl;
b) or else try this command at ur sql plus query level
Go to cmd prompt.
Sqlplus /nolog
conn /as sysdba
this will take you to the sqlprompt.
Just execute the earlier commands there.
sqlplus>UPDATE SAP<schema>.usr02 set uflag=0 where mandt=<CLNT NO> and uflag=64;
this statement actually unlocks the users of that particular client. So, try for every client in that sap system.
c) You can delete sap*
Go to cmd prompt.
Sqlplus /nolog
conn /as sysdba
sqlplus>DELETE SAP<SID>.usr02 where mandt='CLIENT.NO' and bname=SAP*;
after doing this restart the system. So, that a new user with the name "sap" gets generated with password "pass". Provided the parameter is set login/no_automatic_user_sapstar= 0 (Automatic user SAP is permitted).
