Description

On some installations, it is a problem for the OpeniT client to create temporary
lock-files, e.g with regards to file permissions over NFS-mounted filesystems. This
patch makes the client avoid using lock-files, since it is deemed very unlikely that
more than one ananlysis run of a LSF-file will be active at any given time.

This patch should be applied to Accounting clients that collect LSF data and
where you wish to avoid having the client create remporary lock-files in the
directory where the LSF-accounting source-file is located.

Installation

Unpack tar file in e.g /tmp/patch on the Open iT server/client. Do the 
following as root:

  cd /tmp/patch
  ./patch.pl
