System Locking Elements
If you are a server administrator, you can system lock an element by using the server’s file system to make the element’s supporting server files read-only. If you do not know the names of the files that correspond to a particular element, use the Lock Properties command from the right-click menu. For details, see Viewing Lock Status of Elements. Usually, a system lock is not reflected in Software AG Designer or the Integration Server Administrator until you reload the package in which the element resides.
Important:  
Before you system lock an element, always verify that it is not locked by a user on the Integration Server. If an element becomes system locked while a user is editing it, the user will not know until he or she tries to save changes to the element. If this occurs, make the element’s corresponding files writable on the server. After this is done, the user can save his or her changes to the element.
Note:  
System locking is not supported if you are running webMethods Integration Server as root on a Unix system.
