LOCKRMWT

                                  NOTE

      On OpenVMS Version 8.3 systems, LOCKRMWT does not control
      lock remastering. See LOCKDIRWT.

   LOCKRMWT can have a value from zero to 10. The default is 5.
   Remaster decisions are based on the difference in lock remaster
   weights between the master and a remote node. When weights are
   equal, the remote node needs about 13% more activity before the
   tree is remastered. If a remote node has a higher lock remaster
   weight, the amount of activity is less. If the remote node has a
   lower lock remaster weight, the additional activity required to
   move the tree is much greater.

   Lock remaster weights of zero and 10 have additional meanings.
   A value of zero indicates that a node does not want to master
   trees and always remasters to an interested node with a higher
   LOCKRMWT. Lock trees on an interested node with a LOCKRMWT
   lower than 10 are remastered to the node with a weight of 10
   for LOCKRMWT.

   LOCKRMWT is a DYNAMIC parameter.
