Alert: lkTableSize x > y

What does it mean? What do I do about it?

Example alert from the ProTop Portal:

What does it mean?

The lock table for this database is set rather high.  Usually, this is done in response to users being kicked out of their sessions due to lock table overflow errors. It is a band-aid measure while the cause of the lock table overflow errors is being investigated.

What to do?

Determine the source of the high lock table use.  Have a look at this article on Finding Code: Lock Table Overflow.
