  2. Bad command or file name - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bad_command_or_file_name

    "foo" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Some early Unix shells produced the equally cryptic " foo: no such file or directory " again accurately describing what is wrong but confusing users.

  3. Record locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Record_locking

    The introduction of granular (subset) locks creates the possibility for a situation called deadlock. Deadlock is possible when incremental locking (locking one entity, then locking one or more additional entities) is used. To illustrate, if two bank customers asked two clerks to obtain their account information so they could transfer some money ...

  4. File locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_locking

    Using the lockfile command (a conditional semaphore-file creator distributed in the procmail package). System calls that create a file, but fail if the file already exists. (System calls are available from languages such as C or C++, and shell scripts can make use of noclobber) Using the mkdir command and checking the exit code for failure [11]

  5. format (command) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Format_(command)

    With this option, Format writes bootstrap code to the first sector of the volume (and possibly elsewhere as well). Format always writes a BIOS Parameter Block to the first sector, with or without the /S option. Another option (/Q) allows for what Microsoft calls "Quick Format". With this option the command will not perform steps 2 and 3 above.

  6. Wait-for graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wait-For_Graph

    A wait-for graph in computer science is a directed graph used for deadlock detection in operating systems and relational database systems.. In computer science, a system that allows concurrent operation of multiple processes and locking of resources and which does not provide mechanisms to avoid or prevent deadlock must support a mechanism to detect deadlocks and an algorithm for recovering ...

    A command-line interface is a means of interacting with a computer program where the user issues commands to the program by typing in successive lines of text (command lines). MySQL ships with many command line tools, from which the main interface is the mysql client. [123] [124]

  8. Two-phase locking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-phase_locking

    In databases and transaction processing, two-phase locking (2PL) is a pessimistic concurrency control method that guarantees conflict-serializability. [1] [2] It is also the name of the resulting set of database transaction schedules (histories).

  9. Deadlock (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadlock_(computer_science)

    Phantom deadlocks are deadlocks that are falsely detected in a distributed system due to system internal delays but do not actually exist. For example, if a process releases a resource R1 and issues a request for R2 , and the first message is lost or delayed, a coordinator (detector of deadlocks) could falsely conclude a deadlock (if the ...
