If a user is performing administration functions, administration is locked for all other users.

End of the note.

An SAP liveCache database is started using the Database Manager. The DBM Server executes the control file lcinit.bat with the option restart. In this case, the volumes are not formatted. The data is loaded from the data volumes into the SAP liveCache database. Among other things, the liveCache applications are also registered.
